It’s Cookie Time, Wilderness Girls – Cameron Diaz is developing a sequel to the ’80s cult classic Troop Beverly Hills.

What a thrill!
The new movie is in development at TriStar Pictures, with DuVall set to direct from her own script and Diaz eyeing a starring role. Plot details are under wraps, but the prospect of revisiting the Wilderness Girls, who hail from Beverly Hills?
Released in 1989, Troop Beverly Hills starred Shelley Long as Phyllis Nefler, a pampered but soon-to-be-divorced Beverly Hills housewife who aims to prove to her daughter that she can rough it as a Wilderness Girls leader. Along the way, Phyllis discovers that it’s not a bad thing for shopping to be her greatest skill. In fact, her mastery of the luxury lifestyle — everything from jewelry appraisal and grooming to international relations and yes, dancing the Freddy — could be just as beneficial to her troop as learning to build a fire or pitch a tent.
