It took a lot of negotiating to get her to star in the remake When a Stranger Calls after Evan Rachel Wood turned it down. She is not a fan of horror movies and nearly turned down the role of Jill Johnson as a result until director Simon West told her he was going more for a psychological thriller which is when she accepted. She had to turn down the role of Kelli Presley in the Black Christmas to take on the role, which starred her co-star from the former film Katie Cassidy.
