[EDIT] I just found out that Alexis will play Catherine Morgan, James McAvoy’s character’s wife. James play Frederick Aiken. [/EDIT]
Thanks to Chaz for giving me the heads up on Alexis’ new project! Alexis has joined the cast of The Conspirator which is a drama about the aftermath of President Lincoln’s assassination. Also joining the cast is Justin Long, Evan Rachel Wood, James McAvoy and a handful of other famous faces. I can’t wait for this project. The director is Robert Redford. The article states that filming started on Monday in Savannah, Georgia but I don’t think Alexis will be filming until after this week as she is still shooting The Kate Logan Affair.
In talking of KLA, I have added a bunch of photos from the set thanks to cinoche.com. There is also an article (in French) which talks about the shooting of the movie.

The scene shot last Wednesday in Chambly occurs early in the film. “It’s a scene that allows us to have elements of understanding the character, a young policewoman, Kate Logan,” according to Noel Mitrani. “This is a very proud person who does not like to be at fault.”

Why Alexis Beldel? “I needed an actress who does more than adolescence, and less than adulthood. It’s very difficult to find. When I found Alexis, she was still in this interim period, which lasts very little in a woman where she was a little innocence of youth, but it is not yet a woman. ”

Who is Kate Logan? “This is a young policewoman who loves the idea of being an authority figure, but it is not very down to earth. At first, she accidentally stops a man who resembles a wanted criminal, but she must let go, and they meet again … The story evolves from there, but I’m not supposed to talk about … “
