It's back to square one for the Sam Raimi-produced "Evil Dead" remake. According to Variety's Jeff Sneider (via indieWIRE), actress Lily Collins has dropped out as the lead of the upcoming horror reboot due to scheduling issues.
Depending on where you land on the "Let's remake an '80s horror film!" scale, this could be either really good or really bad news. For those who prefer to keep the original "Evil Dead" untainted, rest assured that Collins leaving does not mean the end of the project; the movie still has an April 12, 2013 release date.
As for Lily, you can see her -- sans-evil spirits -- as Snow White in the upcoming "Mirror Mirror," out March 16.
