The iconic and transgressive indie filmmaker John Waters is making his return to directing after nearly 20 years since his last film A Dirty Shame released in 2004.
Waters, known for films like Hairspray and Pink Flamingos, has been working in many areas including acting, writing, commentary and even touring some live shows.
He will write and direct the adaptation of Liarmouth: A Feel Bad Romance, which is set in his hometown of Baltimore and stars a woman Marhsa Sprinkle who is described like this in the book’s retail description: “Suitcase thief. Scammer. Master of disguise. Dogs and children hate her her own family wants her dead. She’s smart, she’s desperate, she’s disturbed, and she’s on the run with a big chip on her shoulder.”
You can tell this book was a John Waters original just from the description. It has been optioned by Village Roadshow Entertainment, and Steve Rabineau has been attached to the project as a producer.
Waters’ films, his first ones especially, were extremely controversial and gave a face to counterculture movements at the time, with many of them being extremely explicit and containing bizarre storylines. Many of Waters’ early films starred the late actor and drag queen Divine, who remains a titanic figure in the LGBTQ community.
