Female-Led 21 Jump Street in the Works

Sony Pictures executives are expanding the 21 JUMP STREET franchise with a female-centric version of the hit buddy cop film.

Studio bosses found success with the 2012 movie starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill, as well as its 2014 sequel, and now they are developing a spin-off which will feature two women in the lead roles.

The two Jump Street movies have grossed more than $530 million (£331 million) at the worldwide box office for Sony, and a third installment, 23 Jump Street, is already in the works.
