Though there is still no word on whether she will star, Reese Witherspoon's Type A Films is developing Under the Bridge, a true-crime account of a brutal high school murder.
Reese Witherspoon For Under the Bridge
Under the Bridge is based on an account from Rebecca Godfrey, who Godfrey, who's from the same area, returned to her hometown to research the eight high schoolers who were charged in the case, investigating the cliques at the group's well-off school as well as the life of Virk, the daughter of Indian immigrants. Two of the students were convicted in 2005.
Catherine Hardwicke (Thirteen) is currently in negotiations to direct. There has still been no mention on whether Witherspoon will star in Bridge. Godfrey, however, could be granted a cameo role.
Keeping away from the romantic genre, Witherspoon will also start in the horror film Our Family Trouble.
Reese Witherspoon recently worked with Jake Gyllenhaal and Meryl Streep in Rendition.
