Rosario Dawson will take over from Kerry Washington as the lead in Denise Di Novi’s “Unforgettable,” about a newlywed menaced by her husband’s ex-wife (played by Katherine Heigl).
Dawson is coming off a sparkling performance in the R-rated rom com “Top Five” and also co-stars in Netflix’s “Daredevil.”
Superstar producer Di Novi will make her directorial debut with the Warner Bros. thriller. Christina Hodson and David Leslie Johnson wrote the script.
Heigl starred in two films this this summer: the musical romance “Jackie and Ryan” and the lesbian family saga “Jenny’s Wedding.”
