Sacha Baron Cohen & Rosamund Pike Cast in Netflix Comedy Movie Ladies First

Sacha Baron Cohen and Rosamund Pike have been cast in a new Netflix comedy movie titled Ladies First.

Ladies First will be directed by Thea Sharrock, who previously made 2016’s Me Before You, 2020’s The One and Only Ivan, 2023’s Wicked Little Letters, and 2024’s The Beautiful Game.

Per Deadline, Ladies First is loosely inspired by Je Ne Suis Pas Un Homme Facile, a 2018 French film (which, in English, translates to I Am Not an Easy Man) that was directed by Éléonore Pourriat.

“Baron Cohen will play an unrepentant womanizing chauvinist who finds himself in a parallel world dominated by women,” Deadline’s description of Ladies First reads. “A fiery female counterpart (Pike) makes things even more complicated.”
