She & Him: Spielberg Taps Diablo Cody For New Untitled Dreamworks Comedy

Is Diablo Cody becoming Steven Spielberg’s new muse? Does Spielberg have a crush on the “Juno” scribe? Aww, kinda cute, right? It seems like she might be the new vessel for his ideas. The director has already tapped her to write the pilot episode (and exec produce) the Showtime series “The United States of Tara,” also based on one of his original ideas.

And now he’s hired her once more to pen an untitled comedy for Dreamworks, though all details on the project are under wraps currently. Once again, it’s based on an original Spielberg concept. He thinks it! She writes! What a cute duo they are.

Cody is apparently still working on ‘Tara.’ Up next for her is the horror comedy, “Jennifer’s Body,”starring Megan Fox which is either currently being shot or wrapped and “Girly Style,” which is still being developed over at Universal.
