Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo are reuniting for upcoming comedy "Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar", eight years after co-writing "Bridesmaids".

According to the Variety, the Lionsgate project will be released in 2020.

Wiig and Mumolo will co-wrote and co-star in the film, which will be directed by Josh Greenbaum.

"I'm so excited to be a part of this movie which showcases Kristen and Annie's original, fresh and undeniably hilarious voice in spades. I'm also always looking for projects with titles that rhyme, so it really all worked out on this one," Greenbaum said.

Gloria Sanchez Productions, the female-focused film and television production company founded and led by Jessica Elbaum, Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, will produce the project along with Wiig and Mumolo.

The story revolves around best friends Barb and Star (Wiig and Mumolo), who leave their small midwestern town for the first time to go on vacation in Vista Del Mar, Florida, where they soon find themselves tangled up in adventure, love and a villain's evil plot to kill everyone in town.
