If you saw Little Miss Sunshine or Signs, you know Abigail Breslin is the real deal. Well, she’s the real deal for at least another year, anyway. Once she get’s older and starts pulling a Lohan, all bets are off. The producer’s behind the drama My Sister’s Keeper are banking on Breslin being the real deal. Their old real deals, sisters Dakota and Elle Fanning, ditched their movie and left the door open for Breslin to step in.
Variety says that Dakota Fanning did not want to shave her head for her role as a girl with cancer. I guess she was hoping that she’d have that non-hair loss form of cancer. When Dakota left the picture over the hair issue, Elle took off, too. Breslin is going to be taking over Elle’s role and Medium’s Sofia Vassilieva will replace Dakota and, presumably, shave her head.
The movie is based on a book by Jodi Picoult about a girl (Breslin) who was conceived to provide blood and bone marrow for her older sister (Vassilieva) who has a rare form of leukemia. She gets sick of being harvested for her organs and tries to sue for medical emancipation. Also appearing in the movie, with all their hair, are Cameron Diaz, Alec Baldwin, and Joan Cusack. Doesn’t sound like anything I’d remotely be interested in seeing, but it’s a good cast.
