Karen McCullah and Tamra Davis Team Up for R-Rated, ‘Bachelorette’-Style Comedy

Screenwriter Karen McCullah and director Tamra Davis have announced their next project: a R-rated comedy about four female friends, one of them pregnant, who end up stranded overseas and pursued by the authorities.

Deadline describes “The Baby Shower” as following in the tradition of “The Hangover,” “Bachelorette,” and “Bridesmaids.” McCullah, the scribe behind “The House Bunny,” “Ella Enchanted,” “Legally Blonde” and “10 Things I Hate About You,” has been hired to rewrite Jenni Ross’ original script.

Davis is the director of “Billy Madison,” “Half Baked,” “Crossroads” and many TV episodes. “The Baby Shower” is being billed as her return to features.
