Tina Fey signs first-look deal with Universal after success of ‘Sisters’

Tina Fey’s production company Little Stranger will give Universal Pictures first shot at projects after signing a first-look deal with the studio today.

The deal runs for two years and comes after Universal released Sisters, with Fey and Amy Poehler, in December, notes TheWrap. Sisters went on to make $101 million worldwide.

Fey also named longtime collaborator Eric Gurian executive VP for Little Stranger. They’ve worked together on Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

In January, Deadline reported that Fey signed on to co-star in Universal’s Do Nothing Bitches with Ronda Rousey. She’s also developing You Bet!, which will be written by Sarah Heyward (Girls) and will star Fey as a woman who counts cards in Atlantic City during financial struggles.

Fey also stars in Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, which opens on March 4.
