She's set to play Audrey Griswold
First-time directors (and the writers who got the thing moving in the first place) John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein are now hard at work preparing the new Vacation, a version that finds Ed Helms as the grown Rusty Griswold taking his own brood on a trip. It’s been missing someone to play his sister Audrey, but now Leslie Mann is in talks for that role.
Also serving as both a sequel and a semi-reboot, this Vacation finds he characters from the 1983 John Hughes comedy as adults, with Helms married to Christina Applegate.
Audrey, who was played by Dana Barron in the original, will here be married to news anchor man Stone Crandall, set to take the shape – assuming his deal has gone through – one Chris Hemsworth. Charlie Day is planning to make a one-scene cameo in the film, while Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo are likely to show up as Rusty and Audrey’s parents, Clark and Ellen Griswold. Daley and Goldstein are set to kick off actual production next week in Louisiana.
Mann was last seen in The Other Woman and is attached to star in bounty hunting comedy Las Madres.
