Evil Dead Remake Gets A NEW New Ash - Jane Levy Headed To The Cabin In The Woods

[Brendon Connelly]

Further to all of the other Evil Dead business of the evening, here's a casting re-update.

As Lily Collins didn't ultimately sign on for the lead role of Mia in Fede Alvarez' shemp-shanking do-over, the part has now gone to Jane Levy. Here's a picture, should you not know the name.

And a micro-resume. Ms. Levy is the star of Suburgatory, and has the "best friend role" in the upcoming Halloween teen comedy, Fun Size. I've not seen her in anything, to the best of my knowledge, and I doubt I will, this side of Fun Size.

Her role in Evil Dead is apparently the closest the new story has to an Ash, though enough has been changed up that the comparison might proven to be a little misleading.

While I'm against an Evil Dead remake (arguably, its second), I started watching "Suburgatory" because I had a crush on this actress (luckily, it's a pretty clever show anyway). Good for her! Hope she enjoys her Well-It's-Hiatus-Better-Find-A-Film-Project movie!

Agreed, I really like her on Suburgatory, and though I was sort of dreading this remake I am actually looking forward to it more now. She's like an Emma Stone that doesn't try so hard to be wry.

She doesn't look like Bruce Campbell.

If this is its own movie give it its own name. I really don't think remaking successful movies or using successful names guarantees box office dollars. Start something new!

After a quick trip to IMDB to confirm her age I would like to say...

mmmm. God I love a sexy ginger.

She's good in suburbanthingy, but it is very, very bad.
