Fox Atomic is bringing on Karyn Kusama to direct Jennifer's Body, a quirky comedic thriller written by Juno screenwriter Diablo Cody, according to Variety.

Transformers star Megan Fox will play a cheerleader in a sleepy town whose perfect life goes haywire when she becomes possessed and begins killing the young men in town who lust after her.

Hard C partners Jason Reitman and Dan Dubiecki will produce with Mason Novick. Reitman directed the Cody-scripted sleeper hit Juno for Atomic's sister company Fox Searchlight.

Kusama directed Girlfight and Aeon Flux. Shooting begins in early March.
