Thriller ‘After.Life’ line up Christina Ricci as one of the cast on the upcoming movie.
A word from an insider reveals that Emmy Award-nominated actress Christina Ricci will star on Agnieszka Wojtowicz-Vosloo’s “After.Life”. No statement is available to answer the question whether Christina will replace the role of the previously-announced cast, Kate Bosworth or play along side her.
“After.Life” is a horror movie which chronicles a young woman in a transitional state between life and death who fights to avoid being buried alive while also concerns a funeral director who holds her fate in his hands. The film will reportedly begin its shooting sessions on November 10 in the Big Apple. Unfortunately, no word yet on when the movie will make its theater debut.

“Speed Racer” is now out on DVD here in the US! You can purchase the film in Wide Screen, Full Screen or Blu-Ray format.
Some stores, like Target, are having “exclusive” versions of the film with extra features… So make sure to shop around and find the best buy!
I’ll be renting a copy of the movie (hopefully today) to make captures of Christina’s parts… The caps will be up here this weekend, at the latest, only because of work.

Thanks to the fine folks at ONTD, we have the first movie still of Christina and co-star Orlando Bloom in the movie “New York, I Love You”. You can view the larger version by clicking on the thumbnail to the left!
The movie will open in theaters in February 2009.
Christina has signed on to star in a new movie titled “All’s Faire in Love” – it’s a comedy, so it should be great to see Christina in this type of film!
Christina Ricci, Owen Benjamin, Nadine Velazquez, Bill Engvall and Cedric the Entertainer are heading to the Renaissance Faire in the romantic comedy “All’s Faire in Love.”
Benjamin (“The House Bunny”) will play an eager drama school grad whose new Renaissance Faire theater troupe makes him their fetch boy. His hopes and libido rise when he spots a Faire virgin (Ricci), but swashbuckling colleagues threaten to thwart their budding romance.
Ann-Margret, Matthew Lillard and Louise Griffiths also star in the That’s Hollywood/Patriot Pictures production. Velazquez (NBC’s “My Name Is Earl”) and Engvall (Blue Collar Comedy Tour) will be cast by the time cameras roll this month in Michigan.
Scott Marshall (“Keeping Up With the Steins”) directs from Robert A. White’s screenplay. Scott Reed and Ron Singer (“Bumper”) are producing under their That’s Hollywood shingle.
Patriot’s Michael Mendelsohn is executive producing, financing and overseeing casting of the film. Sidney Kimmel International is handling international sales.
The project originally was titled “Ye Olde Times,” with writer White initially slated to direct. The CAA/Visions Management Group-repped Cedric replaces the once-attached Jack Black as Professor Shockworthy, whose appearances bookend the film he narrates in fairy-tale style.
Ricci is repped by ICM and Management 360. Benjamin is repped by CAA and Principato Young. Velazquez is repped by Gersh and Benderspink. Engvall is repped by CAA and Parallel.
From the Hollywood Reporter… Thanks Frank and Andy for the heads up!
