Dreamworks Pits ‘Wife vs. Ninja’

Holly Bario, Dreamworks’ co-president of production, says the studio “fell in love with the mix of action and laughs” in “Wife vs. Ninja,” based on a pitch from Michael Besman (of “About Schmidt” and “The Opposite of Sex” fame).

No, it’s not another entry in the Tiger Woods saga, but the story of “a Long Island housewife who discovers that the beautiful young intern who recently stole her scientist husband is actually a bloodthirsty ninja assassin intent on stealing his work.”

Besman will also produce.
