Goldie Hawn Will Reportedly End Her Acting Hiatus To Play Amy Schumer’s Mom

The year: 2002. George W. Bush was president, Tiger Woods was winning majors, and Goldie Hawn starred in the fluffy comedy The Banger Sisters. The year: 2016. George W. Bush is no longer president, Tiger Woods isn’t winning much of anything, and Goldie Hawn hasn’t starred in anything since The Banger Sisters, save for a guest appearance on Phineas and Ferb.

The Oscar winner has been busy looking after the Hawn Foundation, which “transforms children’s lives by providing vital social and emotional learning programs,” and watching her old movies. But according to the Wrap, Hawn’s big-screen hiatus might be coming to an end thanks to Amy Schumer.

Oscar winner Goldie Hawn is in talks to play Amy Schumer‘s mother in an upcoming comedy from director Jonathan Levine, an individual familiar with the 20th Century Fox project has told the Wrap… Katie Dippold wrote the script and will serve as an executive producer. The film, which is inspired by Dippold’s relationship with her mother, follows a family vacation gone wrong. (Via)

It’s like the 1980s all over again in the Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell household. She has this project and Divanation, and he starred in Furious 7, Bone Tomahawk, and The Hateful Eight last year. They’re the original Anna Faris and Chris Pratt (except Broncos instead of Seahawks), and now I want to see Kurt Russell ride a motorcycle while surrounded by dinosaurs.
