Megyn Kelly, Roger Ailes Harassment Allegations Film in the Works

Megyn Kelly’s accusations of sexual harassment against former Fox News chief Roger Ailes will be the subject of a new film from Oscar-winning The Big Short screenwriter Charles Randolph.

According to Variety, Annapurna Pictures (the studio behind Seth Rogen’s raunchy animated comedy Sausage Party) has snagged the rights to the project, which will also center on the allegations made by other women against Ailes, including those of former Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson.

Annapurna’s Megan Ellison will co-produce alongside Margaret Riley and Randolph, while Randolph is also slated to write the script.

Kelly detailed her allegations against Ailes in her recently-released memoir Settle for More, in which she wrote that the 76-year-old former chairman and CEO of Fox News made improper sexually-charged advances toward her shortly after she joined the network in 2005.
