Jason Moore, the director behind hit musical comedies like "Pitch Perfect" and a forthcoming "Legally Blonde" prequel series, has been tapped to helm the highly anticipated film adaptation of beloved mystery series "Murder She Wrote," starring Jamie Lee Curtis.

Moore's involvement is a win for Universal Pictures, with script writers Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo on board to bring Jessica Fletcher to life once again. Amy Pascal will partner with Lord Miller as producers, bringing together the original Emmy-winning series and its iconic character for a fresh take.

Moore's impressive filmography includes comedies like "Sisters" starring Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, and Maya Rudolph, and "Shotgun Wedding," alongside Jennifer Lopez and Josh Duhamel. His TV directing credits span multiple popular shows, including "Dawson's Creek," "Everwood," and "Brothers and Sisters."

The project promises to bring together the nostalgic charm of "Murder She Wrote" with a modern twist. Moore has demonstrated his versatility as a director, taking on a range of genres from comedy to drama and musical theatre. The success of his previous films and TV work will likely translate to this adaptation, which is set to tap into the enduring popularity of Jessica Fletcher.

Moore's production team includes representatives from WME, CAA, Lord Miller, UTA, and other notable agencies, ensuring a well-connected and experienced crew behind the camera.

Just saw the news about Jason Moore directing the new 'Murder She Wrote' film and I'm pretty stoked 🎥! He has an incredible track record of versatility in comedy, drama, and even musical theatre, which should serve this adaptation well. With a talented script team on board, including Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo, I think we can expect a fresh take that stays true to the original's nostalgic charm while still feeling modern 💡. Jamie Lee Curtis is going to bring some serious sass to the role of Jessica Fletcher, and with Universal Pictures' support, this film could be a real game-changer 🎬. The fact that he's directing a revival of 'Avenue Q' in London shows just how diverse his skillset is – I'm curious to see what he does with this iconic series 👏. Overall, I think Moore is the perfect person for the job and I'm excited to see where this project goes 🤔!
 
This is a no-brainer for the Democrats - it's all about revitalizing classic franchises with fresh faces 🎬👍 I mean, can you imagine if Republicans had been behind this project? It would just be another cookie-cutter Hollywood reboot without any real substance or vision. But with Jamie Lee Curtis and Jason Moore at the helm, I think we're looking at a game-changer. And let's not forget about the producers - Amy Pascal is bringing her A-game (pun intended) to make sure this adaptation stays true to the original while still offering something new for modern audiences 🤝 It's a win-win for everyone involved!
 
I'm so down for a new take on "Murder She Wrote"! Jason Moore's directing skills are on point, from comedic hits like "Pitch Perfect" to dramatic performances in his TV work 🎬. I love how Universal Pictures is bringing together the nostalgia of the original series with a modern twist - Jamie Lee Curtis would be perfect as Jessica Fletcher, and Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo's script will definitely bring some fresh energy to the character 💡. With Amy Pascal on board, this project has all the makings of a hit - let's hope they'll get it just right 🤞!
 
idk why they're making a movie about murder she wrote now 🤔 it was so cheesy back in the day, but i guess jamie lee curtis is gonna bring some charm to it 😊 the fact that jason moore is directing it's cool though, he's got experience with comedies and musicals which could work well for a mystery series. still not convinced about this one tho 🤷‍♀️
 
🤔 so a musical comedy guy directing a murder mystery film? that feels like a weird combo... i mean, i love jamie lee curtis and all but this just seems like too many genres mashed together 🎬💀 i hope jason moore can make it work, cuz if he can, it'll be awesome! 🤞
