Here is what we know…
Dumpin’ has been picked up by Netflix and is set this hit our screens later this year, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Australian superstar Danielle Macdonald (of Patti Cake$ fame) plays Willowdean Dickson, the plus-size teenage daughter of a former beauty queen, who signs up for her mum’s pageant as a protest, revolutionising the competition and her small Texas town in the process.
The film is based on Julia Murphy’s best-selling book of the same name, and is directed by Anne Fletcher (who brought Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds together for The Proposal).
Dolly Parton wrote six original songs for the film, and recorded new versions of her classics with Sia and Miranda Lambert. Aniston and Macdonald also collaborated on tracks, so get ready for some bangers.
If Macdonald’s smash hit “PBNJ” from last year’s Patti Cake$ is anything to go by, Dumplin’ is going to be the best sounding film of 2018.
