Touchstone Pictures and Beacon Pictures will team for "Funlady," a fact-based comedy that has wife Tea Leoni attached to star. Susan Brightbill ("Hergatory", "Twice Upon a Time") will write the script on the project which marks actor/director David Duchovny's producing debut reports Variety.
Duchovny acquired the life rights of Linda Brewer, an Arkansas woman who raised her daughters by hosting passion parties and selling marital sex toys out of her car.
Brewer dropped out of high school when she got married. When she found herself single and in need of a career, she attended a "passion party," the X-rated version of a Tupperware party, and became a pitchwoman for pleasure, thriving in the Bible belt.
