The movie is also getting updated for the 21st century. In the original, Martin and Caine tried to swindle an heiress out of her fortune. In the remake, the two female scam artists, "one low rent and the other high class," set their sights on a naive tech prodigy.
The original 998 "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" was itself a remake of the script for 1964's "Bedtime Story" with Marlon Brando.
Wilson is apparently a fan of remakes; she's also set to star in a new take on Goldie Hawn's "Private Benjamin."
"Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" is just the latest movie to flip genders. Channing Tatum is circling a gender-reversed remake of "Splash."
