EXCLUSIVE: Brie Larson has landed the coveted lead role of Molly in Sony Pictures’ 21 Jump Street, starring opposite Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum and Ice Cube. Neil Moritz is producing. Phil Lord and Chris Miller are directing.
Larson, best known for playing Toni Collette’s rebellious daughter in the Showtime series United States of Tara, recently wrapped the Oren Moverman-directed cop drama Rampart, which also starred Cube, along with Woody Harrelson, Robin Wright and Ben Foster. Larson’s other recent film credits include Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Greenberg. The third season of United States of Tara starts this month. Larson is repped by Gersh and Roar.







Exciting! I was talking to friends the other day and we all agreed: Hollywood’s not remaking enough old shows and movies. Studios keep wasting time on original ideas. I mean, like 10% of movies last year were original ideas. That is 10% too much.
HEY STUDIOS STICK TO THINGS WE’VE SEEN BEFORE!
At least they’ve got one good actor now.
why did the change come for holly in the movie 21 jumpstreet
She is very talented and lovely to work with. She deserves all the success she gets!
Excellent! My friends and I were talking the other day and we all agreed that Hollywood needs to remake more movies and tv shows. They need to stop wasting time on original ideas. Last year like 10% of movies were original and that’s just too much. GET THAT TO ZERO STUDIOS.
She’s great. And “Rampart” sounds cool.
It’s great seeing the next generation of already established career actors continuing to move forward in their craft. Brie is immensely talented! Good for her.
Does her contract force her to make the Booker movie?
Brie is such a talent and she is on the brink of such a great career. It has been a pleasure to watch her mature as an actor over the many years of working with her

Congratulations Brie!!! She is great kid and a wonderful actor
LOVE HER! Cant wait for US of Tara to come back
Molly? Who the hell’s Molly?!? There was no character in Jump Street named Molly. Surely this isn’t intended to be the Holly Robinson part.
Ever since they announced that Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum will play some sort of lead duo, it’s become obvious that this isn’t the remake we had hoped for. It’s going to be another Jonah Hill show type flick. I guess Get Him To The Greek still made too much money to end that weird obsession with Hill.
remakes always manage to try to slip something in, by diehard fans usually speak up!
I LOVE Brie Larson, she is gorgeous, shes a great actress… in other word >>> She’s PERFECT !!! wishing luck !! FTW
So far nobody in this 21 Jump Street movie looks like they could be in high school
This movie sounds terrible. Not even Jonah Hill can save it.
The worst cast ever!!! I loved the TV show but this cast makes me sick.
The cast sucks balls! Anything with ice cube in it is rubbish.
I want a night rider remake. A comedy of course.
And a smokey and the Bandit remake!
This sounds like it’ll be even worse than the Mod Squad remake!
