We’re getting closer to living in a world where Paul Thomas Anderson directs Tiffany Haddish. The director made headlines earlier this year while accepting the New York Film Critics Circle awards for Best Screenplay. Anderson was not in attendance, but he had his “Phantom Thread” star Lesley Manville read a note he wrote which directly addressed the “Girls Trip” breakout star.

“I know everyone wants to work with you now,” Anderson wrote to Haddish, “but please, may I cut to the front of the line?”

Anderson proceeded to give out his actual phone number, which it turns out Haddish made sure to write down. The comedian has confirmed to Vulture that she has in fact called Anderson directly and now the two have spoken multiple times about a potential collaboration.
