Fox Searchlight might have to wash its mouth out with soap.
The specialty label has preemptively nabbed the comedy pitch "
Motherf***er" from the hot scribe team of Daryl Wein and Zoe Lister-Jones.
Story centers on a man who falls in love with the mother of his girlfriend after she takes him home to meet her parents."
Motherf***er" is the latest studio pic to feature a title with foul language. Paramount recently wrapped the Ashton Kutcher-Natalie Portman romantic comedy formerly titled "Fuckbuddies" (that film is currently untitled). For years, Searchlight has been developing Nick Flynn's bestseller "Another Bullshit Night in Suck City."
