Melissa McCarthy, pioneering Boston cop

Variety reports that Melissa McCarthy, last in town for the Ghostbusters remake, will star in a movie about the first women cops in Boston in the 1970s (the real ones, not Raquel Welch, and presumably the real ones issued guns, not the real ones who weren't).

She played a Boston cop
She played a Boston cop before in The Heat and it was funny as hell. I dunno if I love the idea of her switching to more dramatic roles because she is just inherently hilarious.
True
But it is said that comedy is far harder than drama. Other actors were hilarious comedic actors and then great dramatic actors e.g Katherine Hepburn, Jack Lemon, Tom Hanks.
Here's hopin' for Melissa!
Broad Squad
Edit: Executive producer is same woman who had an ABC pilot produced on the same subject.
