The insanely talented Amber Tamblyn has apparently moved on much more successfully than the
rest of us from the cruel cancellation of Joan of Arcadia.
She's, like, Joss
Whedon-busy, with two indie
projects in the can (including Stephanie
Daley, which is currently at Sundance trying to scare up distribution) and another currently in
pre-production. And now she's got another job lined up: she'll star in The Grudge 2, playing the sister of Sarah Michelle Gellar who inherits "the movie's supernatural
curse." Tamblyn's costars will be Arielle
Kebbel (you know her from American Pie: Band Camp, of
course) and Teresa
Palmer, who will play the ever-popular "American schoolgirls in Tokyo."The film, under the director of Takashi Shimizu (who also helmed the first ones - both the original and the American remake), will start shooting in Japan next month with an eye on an October release.
