Heavyweight Teaming

TV’s reigning comedy queen, Roseanne Barr, will make her large-screen debut in the title role of Orion’s “She-Devil”--tormenting no less than Meryl Streep.
Based on the novel “The Life and Loves of a She-Devil” by Fay Weldon, the story finds housewife Barr exacting sweet revenge on her unfaithful husband and his new lover (Streep). Described as a very black comedy of infidelity, the adaptation was done by “Married to the Mob” writers Barry Strugatz and Mark Burns. The hubbie’s now being cast.
Susan Seidelman, who launched Madonna’s screen career in “Desperately Seeking Susan,” directs, with filming to start in April in NYC.
