Elisha Cuthbert Lands Comedy Role  6/29/07

Actress Elisha Cuthbert has been lined up to star in a new comedy alongside funnyman Tim Allen.

The 24 star - who is currently promoting her new movie Captivity - says her next film project will be The Six Wives of Henry Le Fay.

She tells Moviehole, "It's this quirky comedy about this girl, my character, whose father dies and she has to wrangle the six wives, they all want him buried a certain way and she just goes through the ringer.

"It starts this August in Connecticut. That's going to be really cool to be off doing the comedy thing, especially with Tim Allen."
