Diablo Cody to collaborate with Steven Spielberg (again)

Diablo Cody has come a long way since the days when she was merely the proprietor of the Pussy Ranch . The woman born Brook Busey—and self-described "unlikely stripper " turned Academy Award laureate—was recently pegged by Steven Spielberg to write a script for  an as-yet-untitled Dreamworks comedy, based on an original concept by Spielberg. That's literally all we know at this point. Apparently the project is under wraps to the point that there's not even a producer attached to the film yet.

This'll be the second time the duo collaborates, the first being the Showtime series The United States of Tara , which Cody produces and wrote the pilot for. Cody's next movie, a black comedy titled Jennifer's Body, is slated for an early 2009 release.
