After completing her promotional duties for The Amazing Spider-Man and scoring herself multiple awards, Emma Stone is in high demand as Hollywood’s newest “it girl,” now she’s ready to take the lead in her newest project.

The 23-year-old actress has signed on to star in Cameron Crowe‘s forthcoming flick, Deep Tiki.

Originally planned to be a romantic film in 2008, the rewritten version of Deep Tiki follows a disgraced military weapons consultant who, after being deployed to a dormant base in Hawaii to supervise the launch of a spy satellite, “starts to discover himself and the relationships he left behind against the backdrop of mythical island lore and Cold War-esque diplomacy.”

The Jerry Maguire director is still on the hunt for a male lead to appear opposite the blonde beauty.

Stone will next appear on the big screen in Gangster Squad, which will reunite her with her Crazy, Stupid, Love co-star, Ryan Gosling.
