Thanks to Mandy and Ang for helping me with this :) From Variety HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - Katie Holmes, a mainstay on the WB's popular teen soap ``Dawson's Creek,'' is in final negotiations to star in the psychological horror picture ``Abandoned.'' Ed Zwick (``The Siege'') is on board to direct the Paramount Pictures project. Holmes will play a university undergrad who is troubled by visions and glimpses of her ex-lover, who suddenly vanished during her freshman year -- as well as by implications that she may have had something to do with another, similar disappearance. ``It's a great movie and a great genre,'' said Zwick, ''and it's one that I'm glad I've finally found the opportunity to explore.'' Holmes co-starred in Curtis Hanson's ``Wonder Boys,'' which Paramount is re-releasing Nov. 8 in select cities in a bid for Oscar consideration. Other Holmes bigscreen credits include ``Go,'' ``Teaching Mrs. Tingle'' and Paramount's December relea! se ``The Gift.'' Reuters/Variety REUTERS |
