Ellen Page (of Juno) is set to star in a new version of Jane Eyre! That's... I have no idea how I feel about that, actually. Huh. I guess it's perplexing. She looks good for the part, but I'm having trouble imagining her being mousy. Or... not snarky. Although I think she's a good enough actress to portray such a different character. I'm more worried about the producer having been involved with The Other Boleyn Girl.

I actually think she would be awesomely mousy. She would be great for the Hollywood I-used-to-be-mousy-but-look-how-pretty-I-am-with-this-new-hairstyle movie switch.
I'm not sure how I feel about it either. Curious I guess, right up there with how Natalie Portman will do as Cathy in the new Wuthering Heights, or how Winona Ryder will do as Amanda Grayson, Spock's human mother.
