It comes after it was announced that Sydney will take on the role of Barbarella 50 years after the character was first brought to life.
She will also executive produce the film.
The 1968 cult classic film, based on the Jean-Claude Forest comic book, was helmed by Roger Vadim, the famous French filmmaker who was Jane’s first husband and who had previously been married to Brigitte Bardot.
Jane had played the sultry space adventurer from the 41st century in the original sci-fi film, which received mixed reviews for its plot and sexual themes.
