A buddy-comedy movie based on the real-life origin story of the Hooters restaurant chain is officially in the works. The film will follow the brand’s original founders as they navigate the chaotic early days of launching the iconic eatery.
Hooters co-founder Edward Droste is producing and co-writing the screenplay, with Jon Rosenbaum tapped to direct. Production is set to begin this November in Clearwater and Tampa, Florida.
