Jennifer Garner Miss Marple role!

Jennifer Garner is taking a break from family life to play Miss Marple in a reboot of Agatha Christie’s mystery series.

The actress who raises two young daughters with her actor husband Ben Affleck and her Vandalia Films partner Juliana Janes will produce the flick.

The character had been portrayed by a long line of actresses who played Marple as an elderly spinster who cracked crimes in her spare time.

Christie wrote 12 mystery novels starring Miss Marple, beginning in 1930. The character inspired several motion pictures and a long-running BBC series.

Garner has previously revealed that she refuses to “starve” herself to lose weight.

I’m not going to starve myself because I have a baby to take care of and nourish and that’s way more important than whatever my brain thinks it needs to do,” she said.

“I do feel pressure, but I can’t make it come off any faster than it does and I can’t seem to be pregnant without gaining 45 pounds, so there’s not a lot I can do about it.

“I wish there was because I do feel the pressure and I do see the cameras, it’s the one time where having people follow you and take pictures is excruciating.”
