Banks will bring everyone's favorite teacher to life for the first time, playing Ms. Frizzle in a live-action hybrid Magic School Bus movie, Scholastic Entertainment and Universal Pictures confirmed on Thursday.
The release says the movie will be a magical field trip based on Joanna Cole's seminal book series.
Banks' version of Ms. Frizzle will likely be a take on the bus-driving, pattern-obsessed Frizz previously voiced by Lily Tomlin in the animated PBS series, rather than her sister, the Kate McKinnon-voiced Fiona Frizzle, from Netflix's The Magic School Bus Rides Again.
Now, the big question is: Who will sing the theme song for the movie?
