Los Angeles, California – A movie about the infamous restaurant chain Hooters – best known for its chicken wings and scantily clad waitresses – is in the works.
The American fast‑food chain will soon be at the center of a feature film, according to the entertainment news site Deadline.
A director for the unexpected project appears to have already been found: Jon Rosenbaum.
The filmmaker has once been nominated for an Emmy, but is best known so far for his work on children’s series.

The series is being produced by 75-year-old Edward C. Droste and the other co‑founders of Hooters.
Droste is also slated to contribute to the screenplay. Casting for the film has already begun.
What will the Hooters film be about?
Founded in Florida in 1983, Hooters still had hundreds of locations worldwide just a few years ago.
By 2025, however, it had to file for bankruptcy.
The chain became known less for its food than for its exclusively female staff.
The waitresses – usually in their 20’s or 30’s – wear revealing outfits, and their sex appeal has been and remains the primary marketing hook.
When the film will hit theaters or appear on streaming platforms is still unknown.
