It has been confirmed that True Blood star Lindsay Pulsipher will be replacing Hilary Duff in the remake of Bonnie and Clyde.
The actress would appear to have taken over Duff's role, after the 23-year-old star was forced to step down because of her pregnancy. Pulsipher was originally meant to portray Duff's on-screen cousin Mary, but according to the producer, the star has been bumped up to the lead role.
Producer Tonya S Holly issued a statement which read: "We are thrilled to welcome Lindsay Pulsipher as Bonnie Parker in The Story of Bonnie and Clyde. Lindsay will undoubtedly bring many layers to this critical role. This is a gripping story about two of the most legendary fugitives in history."
Things aren't looking too good for the production of The Story of Bonnie and Clyde as the film also appears to be missing a 'Clyde' after Tom Rogers pulled out of the project as well.
The statemement continued: "We were told that Duff would not be available until June 2012 and that Zegers would not be available until January of the new year. Due to our obligations with investors and international buyers it is imperative that we stick to our current schedule. Therefore we are forced to explore other options for the two lead roles. Unfortunately this happens all the time in the world of filmmaking."
