|

Coming off Bridesmaids, the sixth highest grossing romantic comedy of all time, Kristen Wiig is using her newfound star power to finally get the indie pic Imogene off the ground.

Wiig will star as the title character, a moderately successful New York playwright who stages a fake suicide attempt to win back her ex-boyfriend, only to end up being forced into the custody of her gambling-addict mother.
