Mischa Barton is set to star in yet another movie! She will star in the 2008 thriller “Homecoming” – and will be the ‘bad girl’ of the flick!
A girl never forgets her first love…
“Homecoming” will be directed by Morgan J. Freeman. He’s probably best known for Dawson’s Creek, but also for a few horror flicks and other movies.
“Homecoming” is co-written by Katie Fetting and Frank Hannah.
The movie is a scary thriller along the lines of Misery. In it, Mischa takes her ex boyfriend’s new girlfriend hostage. But, according to Freeman, he’ll ground the story in reality so that the movie “truly terrifies.” Sounds like Mischa can truly stretch and show her chops as a bad girl in this one.
The movie begins filming on December 10 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and will run into late January.
Thanks to MischaNews for this head-up!

Company picks up rights to Attenborough film
The Works has picked up U.K. and Irish rights to Richard Attenborough’s “Closing the Ring,” which will be released on Dec. 28.
Time-trip romancer, which stars Shirley MacLaine, Christopher Plummer, Mischa Barton, Pete Postlethwaite and Neve Campbell, preemed at the Toronto Film Festival and screens at the London Film Festival this month.
The Works has tapped Mervyn Andrews head of distribution in Ireland. He previously worked for Walt Disney, PolyGram and Lionsgate U.K.
Mischa Barton has signed up to play a lesbian in her latest movie. The former ‘O.C.’ star will portray Russian teenager Lana in ‘Finding t.A.T.u’ about two girls who fall in love at a t.A.T.u concert.
The film, based on a novel, tells the story of “Two teenage girls, Janie who is American and Lana who is Russian, fall in love after meeting at a t.A.T.u concert and are swept into a dangerous world of obsession, drug abuse and murder.”
t.A.T.u. were a fake lesbian Russian pop duo who caused controversy with single ‘All The Things She Said’ in 2003. The accompanying video saw the girls, who were wearing school uniforms, share a kiss. It was later revealed they pretended to be in a lesbian relationship to boost publicity. The film is due out next year.
Mischa, 21, has played a lesbian before. Her ‘The O.C.’ character Marissa Cooper had a brief fling with wild child barmaid Alex.
