Brie Larson to Star in True Story 'Lady Business' at Netflix.


Oscar-winning actress Brie Larson will star in "Lady Business", which is being developed at Netflix, with Larson also eyeing to direct the film.

Larson and Lynette Howell Taylor's 51 Entertainment announced the two-film deal with Netflix on Thursday that also includes the worldwide rights to Larson's feature directorial debut, "Unicorn Store". That film will premiere on April 5, 2019 on Netflix.

After wrapping production on "Unicorn Store", Larson and Howell Taylor joined forces with Endeavor Content to acquire the rights to develop "Lady Business", based on a Fast Company article by John Paul Titlow.

Based on a true story, "Lady Business" is about two young female entrepreneurs, Penelope Gazin and Kate Dwyer, who had to invent a third male company founder in order to be taken seriously in the business world.
