Andrea Dorfman’s Chelsea Peretti-Starrer “Spinster” Lands at Vertical Entertainment

"Spinster"

Vertical Entertainment has acquired U.S. and U.K. rights to Andrea Dorfman’s latest, Variety reports. The comedy made its U.S. premiere at the Miami Film Festival yesterday.

“Spinster” stars “Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s” Chelsea Peretti as Gaby, a woman who is unexpectedly dumped on her 40th birthday. Terrified “she’ll be alone forever,” Gaby “embarks on a dating rampage only to discover that her problem isn’t that she doesn’t have a love life – it’s that she doesn’t have a life.”

Jennifer Deyell penned the script. She and Dorfman collaborated on the screenplay for “Love That Boy,” a 2003 feature directed by the latter. “Heartbeat” and “Sluts: The Documentary” are among Dorfman’s other credits.

Best known for her role as Gina on “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” Peretti’s other credits include “Big Mouth,” “Game Night,” and
“Kroll Show.” You can catch her in theaters in Stella Meghie’s Issa Rae-starrer “The Photograph,” a romance that charts intertwining love stories. Next up for Peretti is “Friendsgiving,” Nicol Paone’s comedy about a group of family and friends that come together celebrate Thanksgiving with a chaotic and dysfunctional dinner party.

No word on a release date for “Spinster” just yet.
