Kim Kardashian is reportedly in talks to star in a new live-action Bratz movie, being developed by Amazon MGM Studios.
The film is based on the iconic MGA Entertainment fashion doll line that launched in 2001 and has sold over 200 million units globally.
Kardashian will also produce the film alongside Erik Feig and Julia Hammer of Picturestart, and Jason and Jasmin Larian for MGA Entertainment. The screenplay is being written by Charlie Polinger and Lucy McKendrick, while Isaac Larian is set to executive produce.
Amazon MGM has officially acquired the Bratz movie package, though plot details remain tightly under wraps. Kardashian’s potential role marks her continued expansion into scripted entertainment, following recent appearances in American Horror Story: Delicate and the upcoming Hulu legal drama All’s Fair, which she also produces. Additionally, she’s producing and starring in the Netflix comedy The 5th Wheel.
This is not the franchise’s first big-screen outing. The original Bratz live-action film, released in 2007 by Lionsgate, received poor critical and commercial reception. However, the new Amazon MGM version aims to reboot the brand with a modern, star-powered approach.
Polinger, who debuted at Cannes with The Plague, is also working on The Masque of the Red Death for A24. McKendrick will direct and star in Fangs, alongside Toni Collette and Joel Edgerton.
Kardashian, represented by WME, continues to expand her brand from fashion and reality TV into mainstream film and scripted content.
