Actress Tina Fey will be on board to feature in and produce "Taliban Shuffle", a movie version of journalist Kim Barker's memoir.

Fey will co-produce the movie with Lorne Michaels, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

Robert Carlock has penned the script for the movie, which tells of Barker's arrival as a fish-out-of-water in Kabul, filing stories about militants, being a woman in wartime Iraq and Pakistan, dealing with boredom interspersed with dashes of violence and the promiscuous war correspondent culture.
