Academy Award winner Octavia Spencer and Academy Award nominee Jessica Chastain are teaming up once again for an untitled holiday comedy, according to a report from THR. The project was subject to a bidding war between Fox and Paramount and Universal, with Universal winning out. Chastain and her producing partner Kelly Carmichael developed the idea and wrote the original treatment, with Peter Chiarelli writing the script. Chiarelli just finished writing the forthcoming film Crazy Rich Asians, based on the Kevin Kwan novel of the same name, and also wrote The Proposal and Now You See Me 2.
