A little known Canadian actress, Holly Deveaux, is set to star as Casey Anthony in a movie which will portray the murder trial and shocking acquittal of the hated mother who was accused of murdering her two-year-old daughter, Caylee.
The movie, “Prosecuting Casey Anthony,” is based on the book, “Imperfect Justice,” written by the case’s prosecuting lawyer, Jeff Ashley.
“West Wing” star Rob Lowe will play the role of Jeff Ashley in the movie, while “The Office” actor, Oscar Nunez will have the difficult job of portraying Anthony’s defence lawyer, Jose Baez.
Holly (19) beat Kristen Stewart, Alyssa Milano, and Jennifer Love Hewitt, to the role.
The young actress, who bears an uncanny resemblance to Anthony, has previously starred in the Canadian series, “Baxter.”
Holly’s role will be relatively limited in the movie, as producers plan to heavily rely on news footage. The movie, which will be a form of documentary, began filming this Wednesday.
Alison Cross, the writer of “Prosecuting Casey Anthony” told the Orlando Sentinel, “It’s not our intention to make a movie that tries Casey for the third time. She was tried in court and she was tried by public opinion.”

Casey Anthony got some unwelcome news this week when her attorneys accepted a subpoena that will force her to take the stand in the civil case against her.
us has learned that Anthony, 26, is angry that her required appearance will affect her plans to leave the country after her probation ends in August. She will now have to be available to testify.
“Casey was really hoping to leave Florida and never look back,” explains a source close to her. “She was really ready to move on with her life. This has ruined everything.”
Anthony will have to answer tough questions about her statements in the days after her daughter, Caylee, was reported missing – and later turned up dead. She claimed that a babysitter named Zenaida Gonzalez had kidnapped the girl, an allegation that turned out to be untrue. Now a woman by the same name is suing Anthony for defamation.
“Casey just wants this case to go away,” says the source. “She definitely doesn”t want to testify, and she”s annoyed that she has to.”
These days, Anthony is living in South Florida. She ventures out infrequently, afraid that she will be recognized. But according to two sources close to her, she looks much different. “Quite honestly, she”s gained a few pounds,” says the source. “She does nothing but sit in front of her computer and eat.” Anthony remains unemployed and broke, and, according to probation reports, she recently stopped attending counseling.
One thing she does do: speak regularly with her estranged mother, Cindy. Sources close to the Anthony family have confirmed that Casey began mending her relationship with Cindy several months ago. She does not communicate with her father, George, whom she accused of molesting her.
Anthony will return to the Orange County courthouse to testify in January 2013.
O ok. Well if she's annoyed, then they should obv just call it off!
If her mother was estranged, she wouldn't be speaking with her.... Dumb article
Oh.
Jennifer love Hewitt on the other hand...
I think that source got their source from here, which lists KStew, Alyssa, and JLH as "fan hopefuls."
