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.

Christina, who first claimed fame for her role as Wednesday Addams in "The Addams Family" (1991), is last seen on Wachowski brothers' big screen "Speed Racer", which has hit the theaters in May. She has also finished working on another movie called "New York, I Love You", which has been premiered at 2008 Toronto International Film Festival in September and is expected to arrive at the theaters on February 13, 2009.
