Tiffany Haddish is set to produce and star in a feature film adaptation of the Dark Horse comic Mystery Girl. The upcoming Netflix film will be directed by McG (Charlie’s Angels, The Babysitter), and will center on Trine (Haddish), a street psychic/detective who has no memory of who she is or where she’s from. Trine is guided by an omniscient voice, which allows her read a person’s history and secrets upon meeting them. Trine teams up with and LAPD officer to solve a crime after they’re both framed for murder.

    Chelsea was born and raised in New Orleans, which explains her affinity for cheesy grits and Britney Spears. An pop culture journalist since 2012, her work has appeared on Autostraddle, AfterEllen, and more. Her beats include queer popular culture, film, television, republican clownery, and the unwavering belief that 'The Long Kiss Goodnight' is the greatest movie ever made. She currently resides in sunny Los Angeles, with her husband, 2 sons, and one poorly behaved rescue dog. She is a former roller derby girl and a black belt in Judo, so she is not to be trifled with. She loves the word “Jewess” and wishes more people used it to describe her.
