Ellen Page
That was quick.
After joining the cast of Sam Raimi's Drag Me to Hell back in early February, the actress has already bailed out on the production. Why? Well, let's have a look, shall we?
Ellen Page Off Drag Me to Hell
According to this official statement, Ellen Page was forced to leave production due to scheduling conflicts. This excuse is comparable to when abused victims claim they fell down stairs.
Ellen Page is no longer available for Sam Raimi's supernatural thriller Drag Me to Hell due to scheduling conflicts caused by a change in the start date of the production.
The film is directed by Sam Raimi and written by Raimi and his brother Ivan.
In a joint statement from Ghost House Pictures and Mandate Pictures: "We were racing to start production so that we could accommodate Ellen's schedule. But like so many other productions trying to start before the potential SAG strike date, this one needed more time and we had to push back the start of production."
While the announcement claims scheduling issues, the good people at Bloody-Disgusting have learned from an inside source that Ellen Page didn't like the film's most recent script. Since she was pretty close to grabbing an Oscar this year, it looks like the young actress has raised her standards.
