Actress Ellen Page has pulled out of Sam Raimi's new horror movie 'Drag Me To Hell'.
The 'Juno' star had agreed to play the lead role in the film, however scheduling conflicts have now forced her to withdraw.
Shooting was due to get underway on March 17 in a bid to wrap before the possible Screen Actors Guild strike on June 30, but was then delayed.
However, the new date clashed with Page's forthcoming roles in psychological thriller 'Peacock' and Drew Barrymore's directorial debut 'Whip It!'
A statement from producers Ghost House Pictures and financier Mandate Pictures, read: "We were racing to start production so that we could accommodate Ellen's schedule.
"But like so many other productions trying to start before the potential SAG strike date, this one needed more time and we had to push back the start of production."

Tori Spelling says she's expecting a girl
Former 'Beverly Hills 90210' star Tori Spelling and her husband Dean McDermott are expecting a baby girl.
Spelling, who already has a one-year-old son with McDermott, revealed the news to People magazine.
The 34-year-old actress said: "I've always wanted a little girl since I'm such a girly girl, and Dean always wanted a little girl as well."
Speaking about when she was told that she is having a girl, she said: "I immediately started crying. I couldn't believe it. I have my beautiful little boy and now I'll have my little girl. It's amazing."
Spelling also said: "I can't wait to be a great mom and friend to her. I'm a little nervous to have a girl."
"But mostly, I'm just excited for the same reasons - to prove to myself that I can be an amazing mom to a little girl."

Spears' behaviour sparks fresh concerns
Singer Britney Spears has sparked fresh concerns for her well-being after reportedly having another "public breakdown".
According to People magazine, the singer was spotted arguing with her friend Sam Lutfi as they returned from a short drive around Beverly Hills.
The magazine reports that Spears looked "visibly distraught" as she jumped out of the car at her home.
She then reportedly wandered around with her dog London in her arms, before sitting on a pavement, while paparazzi were snapping photographs of her.
Onlookers said that she "looked completely lost" and had tears in her eyes.
But the singer later told the photographers: "I'm fine. I'm... having a nice time with my dog."
The report also claims that Spears' most recent boyfriend Adnan Ghalib was later refused entry to her house.

Fourth Bourne film still a possibility
Actor Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass have been discussing whether there will be a follow-up to 'The Bourne Ultimatum'.
Speaking to Empire magazine at the Empire Awards about the speculation regarding a fourth film, Damon said: "I think it's one of these stories that has a life of its own. Not that we're against it, we're all for doing a fourth movie but it means coming up with a good story. There are a lot of things that would have to happen before we would sign up for it."
Reacting to Damon's response, Greengrass said: "He says yes? It's news to me. I think the truth is that it's a very well loved franchise, but we're in the process of trying to work out what kind of film you could make."
He continued: "If there is one, what would it be? How it could go? Without any pressure; without any commitment to it, but everybody loved the franchise. We love it, but none of us would want to go again unless we're sure there's a worthwhile film and that could take some time. You don't want to do that when you feel like you've got to make it and none of us need to, so that's where we are".
