'Charlie's Angels': Lucy Liu backs reboot starring Kristen Stewart

PUBLISHED AUG 24, 2018

Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott and Ella Balinska are all set to kick some ass in the upcoming Charlie's Angels reboot and Stewart says she's happy to have the support of former Angel Lucy Liu.

The reboot, which is being written and directed by Elizabeth Banks, will star Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott and Ella Balinska as the Angels, while Banks herself will take over the role of Bosley. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Lucy Liu, who appeared in the 2000 film and its 2003 sequel, gave her blessings to the trio who will be redefining the Angels.

"To me, I think it's very exciting," Liu said. "It's like Sherlock Holmes. The material in itself is a very different type of literature — and it's not necessarily literature. But it is something that people keep coming back to and they're drawn to. That's something that needs to be explored and if it needs to be explored on all different levels, then it should be," she added.

"It will only be a more positive result for women."
