It was announced back in November that Paramount would tackle a remake of the 2000 Nancy Meyers romantic comedy What Women Want with Henson attached.
What Men Want also stars Tracy Morgan, Pheobe Robinson and Aldis Hodge. The film is produced by Will Packer.
Henson told Entertainment Tonightthat her role in the film is “something I’ve worked my entire career for.”
And, when it comes to what men really are thinking, she told ET, “I don’t need to know everything. I need things left to the imagination, especially the dumb men. I can at least imagine that they’re smart.”
What Men Want hits theaters January 11.
