Christina Ricci is to make her Broadway debut by replacing Alicia Silverstone in Time Stands Still.
The Addams Family star will join Laura Linney and Eric Bogosian when Donald Margulies' play returns to the stage at the end of 2010.
The play received a Tony nomination for Best Play last week (ends07May10). It will resume performances at a theatre to be announced in September (10).
The production is taking a summer (10) hiatus to accommodate Tony Award Best Actress nominee Linney's commitment to her new TV series The Big C, which will premiere in America in August (10).
Silverstone has been forced to give up the role of Mandy in the show due to a scheduling conflict.
But Ricci is back on the big screen later this year with After.Life, which sees her team up with Liam Neeson and Justin Long.
All's Faire in Love is another project under her belt and she is currently working on Bel Ami, which also stars Robert Pattinson.
