Cameron Diaz has signed on to star in Columbia Pictures' raunchy comedy "Bad Teacher," to be directed by Jake Kasdan "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story."
Screenwriters Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky "The Office" wrote the script, which is about a foulmouthed, gold-digging middle-school teacher who, after getting dumped by her boyfriend, competes with a colleague for the affections of the school's model teacher.
Producer Jimmy Miller is producing the movie through his Mosaic Media banner. Doug Belgrad and Jonathan Kadin are overseeing for Columbia Pictures.
Shooting is scheduled to begin in the spring in Los Angeles.
Diaz is also filming three other movies in various stages of production which are "Shrek Forever After," "Knight and Day" and "Green Hornet."
