Has anyone seen the awful Ang Lee movie RIDE WITH THE DEVIL? Jewel is not even acting enough for it to be considered bad acting, whatever it is she calls acting isn't it, so I certainly hope there's no way in hell she'd be a part of this project.
I have no idea what she's like now considering Ride With the Devil was 14 years ago when she was only 25. She'll be starring in the TV movie Ring of Fire as June Carter Cash later this month, so we'll probably have a better idea then. Regardless, it sounds like she may be auditioning for the part as are others, I've no doubt.

I just assumed an actress of her ascension was enough of a star to be only asked to do a reading of a screenplay when she was at least being highly considered for the role. Plus, I had heard she killed.
