Jennifer Aniston dubbed ‘incredibly powerful’ as she takes on key project

Jennifer Aniston has been lauded as “the coolest girl in the world” by acclaimed screenwriter Diablo Cody, who is set to bring her creative vision to the highly anticipated remake of the iconic 1980 film *9 to 5*.

Known for her impressive acting career and undeniable star power, Aniston has taken on the ambitious task of producing this remake, breathing new life into a classic that originally starred Dolly Parton, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin as three women navigating the challenges of working 9 to 5 jobs under an oppressive boss.

Diablo Cody, renowned for her Oscar-winning screenplay for *Juno*, has been enlisted to write the script for this modern update of the beloved film. In a recent interview with People, Cody expressed her admiration for Aniston, calling her “the coolest girl in the world” and praising her as someone who “can make anything happen.” She described Aniston as not only incredibly powerful but also as having a blend of beauty and charisma that makes her the perfect fit for this project.

Reflecting on her hiring process, Cody shared how she felt an immediate and intense desire to be part of the project. “When I heard about the opportunity, I knew I had to act quickly,” Cody revealed. “I thought to myself, ‘If I don’t do this, I’m going to regret it.’ I always use that feeling as a gauge. If I’d be fiercely jealous of whoever got the job instead of me, then it’s a sign I need to pursue it.” This passionate approach led Cody to secure the role, driven by her deep affection for the original film and her determination to honor its legacy.

Cody’s connection to the original *9 to 5* film is deeply personal. She recounted her own experiences in the corporate world, saying, “Many years ago, I was a corporate 9 to 5 girly. I worked in an ad agency, so I drew upon that era of my life to write this script.” Her unique perspective, combined with her enthusiasm for the project, makes her an ideal candidate to modernize the story while retaining its original charm and relevance.

Cody’s excitement about collaborating with Jennifer Aniston and Kathryn Hahn, who will also star in the remake, was palpable. She described the experience as “definitely a pinch-me moment,” underscoring the thrill of working alongside Aniston, whose influence and vision for the film have already made a significant impact.

As the *9 to 5* remake begins to take shape, fans of the original film and newcomers alike can look forward to a fresh take on a classic story, infused with contemporary sensibilities and the star-studded talent of Jennifer Aniston and Diablo Cody. With Aniston’s star power and Cody’s creative prowess, this new iteration promises to be a standout addition to the legacy of a film that continues to resonate with audiences.
