katherineheigl230new.jpgKatherine Heigl is no longer attached to the movie, Adaline, and some reports claim it was due to bitterness on set. Her reps deny this claim.

Heigl, who is also listed on IMDB as an executive producer for the film, was set to play "a young woman, born at the turn of 20th century, who is rendered ageless" after a tragic car accident.

Gary Lucchesi, a partner of producing company Lakeshore Productions, released the following statement to Deadline:

    "She has made two movies with us and we certainly support her decision. We were scheduled to shoot mid-March and we hope to achieve that. We are great fans of hers and if this is what she has to do, we respect that."


Heigl also starred in Lakeshore's One for the Money and Ugly Truth. Earlier this year, the actress left Grey's Anatomy to focus more on being a mom to daughter, Naleigh.

Angela Lansbury, who was set to play Heigl's mom (yes, her mom!) in the film, is still attached to the project. The search is on for a new lead.
