Carmen Electra Joins 'Starsky & Hutch' Cast


Carmen Electra is in negotiations to join the cast of Warner Bros. Pictures' big-screen adaptation of the classic 1970s police action series Starsky and Hutch, according to Hollywood Reporter.

The project, to be directed by Todd Phillips, goes into production today. Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson will star as the cop duo who race around the city in a bright red hot rod and report to their never-happy boss, Capt. Dobey. Huggy Bear (Snoop Dogg) is the duo's flamboyant street informant. Electra will play Hutch's (Wilson) girlfriend.

Stiller and Gil Adler are executive producing. Steve Long, John O'Brien, Phillips and Scott Armstrong wrote the screenplay. Electra has previously appeared in such films as 'Sol Goode', 'Get Over It' and 'Scary Movie'. She most recently appeared on television in 'Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding'.
