The `Single Man` actress - who recently signed up to portray failed US vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin in new TV movie `Game Change` - will star alongside Jeff Bridges in the horror story, originally named `The Spook`s Apprentice`.
The movie follows the tale of a young boy, originally intended to be played by British star Alex Pettyfer before he dropped out, who is training to be an exorcist in the 1700s.
