NEW YORK (AP) – Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Schumer aren’t just riding jet skis together. They’re making a movie.

A representative for Lawrence confirms Wednesday that Lawrence and Schumer are writing a screenplay.

In an interview with The New York Times, Lawrence says the two are planning to star in the comedy as sisters.

Lawrence seems thrilled by their newfound friendship and says she and Schumer are “creatively made for each other.”

The two became friends after the “Hunger Games” star reached out to the comedian to praise her recent film “Trainwreck.”

Photos of the two jet skiing went viral online earlier this summer.
