Frank Miller's Blithe Spirit.
Just picture it:
Elvira, instead of being a ghost, is a whore.
Ruth, instead of being Charles's wife, is another whore. And then a ghost whore.
Charles is still a novelist, but all his books are about whores. Also, he narrates the film (which is in black and white, except for the women's lipstick and red dresses) in a faux-noir style.
Madame Arcati? Retired whore. Or possibly Samuel Jackson dressed as a Nazi. Maybe both.
Miller will do for Coward what he did for Eisner: Make him spin in his grave.
ETA: No, as far as I know, there are no plans for this movie. But honestly, I wouldn't put it past Hollywood. Or Miller.
