With Dax Shepard announced as writer, director and star of a cinematic take on cult cop action show CHiPs, we put out a quiet call to the universe for his wife, Kristen Bell to join him. Whaddya know? The universe heard us! Or… Dax just decided it was easier to cast from within his family.
Yes, Bell has boarded the film, which finds Shepherd as Office John Baker, who, along with fellow police biker Frank “Ponch” Poncherello (Michael Pena), must keep the highways and byways free of crime. Which won’t be easy when you’ve got Vincent D’Onofrio as the main villain of the story.
Adam Brody and Rosa Salazar are also signed on for the movie, which adapts the series that ran between 1977 and 1983 in the States. Shepard is gearing up to shoot soon for Warner Bros.
Bell most recently worked on Melissa McCarthy comedy The Boss (formerly known as Michelle Darnell) and also reprised her role as Anna for the Frozen short Frozen Fever which played before Cinderella this year.
