Regina Hall Set To Produce A ‘Girls Trip’-Inspired Competition Show

1 month ago 4

Regina Hall is taking her talents to unscripted television.

Hall and her production company, Rh Negative, scored a first-look deal with MGM Alternative — the unscripted division of Amazon MGM Studios — to develop and produce shows across a range of unscripted genres, including game shows, true crime, and docuseries’, per The Hollywood Reporter.

The first project is Squad Games, a competition show “loosely inspired” by the 2017 film Girls Trip that centers around “celebrities and their real-life BFFs on an exotic getaway where they compete in wild challenges.”

“I’m so excited for this new partnership with MGM,” Hall shared in a statement. “I’m positive that the relationship between Rh Negative and their team will be an incredibly supportive and productive one and I’m thrilled about what we have in the works.”

Barry Poznick, general manager of MGM Alternative, added, “Ever since we saw Regina Hall co-hosting the Academy Awards two years ago, we knew she had something special that would resonate with reality fans. Her humor, honesty, creativity and style of storytelling make her a perfect partner as we continue to expand MGM Alternative’s slate of premium unscripted programming.”

The announcement comes the day after Marlon Wayans revealed that he and his brothers, Shawn and Keenen Ivory, are returning to the Scary Movie franchise.

Paramount Pictures first confirmed the reboot this past April. Two months later, Anna Faris said she’d only consider reprising her role if Hall did the same.

Faris starred as Cindy Campbell in four installments of the infamous satirical parody with Hall as her best friend, Brenda.
