ANNE HATHAWAY could soon be fighting a monster horde.

    Hathaway is attached to star in and produce “The Shower,” a female-centric sci-fi action comedy that made last year’s “Blacklist,” the annual listing of best not-yet made screenplays in Hollywood.

    Producing with Hathaway are her husband Adam Shulman as well as Andrew Lauren, the son of Ralph Lauren, and D.J. Gugenheim. Lauren is the head of Andrew Lauren Productions.

    Jac Schaeffer, who wrote “The Shower,” will also produce. The project is described as being tonally in the vein of the Seth Rogen apocalypse comedy “This Is the End,” cult hit “Attack the Block” and Kristen Wiig-Melissa McCarthy’s “Bridesmaids.”

    The story begins with a bright baby shower when the guests find themselves under darker skies: a meteor shower. These meteors, however, turn men into blood-hungry aliens and the women must fight to not only save themselves but also the world.

    The project is in the packaging phase, with the plan to get a director and actors before taking it to financiers or studios.

    “Jac has written an awesome sci-fi comedy centered around funny, fully dimensional female characters,” said Hathaway. (SD-Agencies)
