Juno star Ellen Page will star in Drag Me to Hell and will be directed by Sam Raimi, his first directorial outing since “Spider-Man 3.” Page will follow up Drag Me to Hell with Whip It which is Drew Barrymore’s first directing gig.

Juno Oscar nominee Ellen Page is one of 10 young actresses who grace the cover of Vanity Fair’s annual Hollywood issue, on stands nationwide Feb. 12. Page, 20,is joined by America Ferrera (Ugly Betty), Emily Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada), 24; Amy Adams (Enchanted), 33; Jessica Biel (I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry), 25; Anne Hathaway (The Devil Wears Prada), 25; Alice Braga (I Am Legend), 24; Zoe Saldana (Vantage Point), 29; Elizabeth Banks (The 40 Year-Old Virgin), 33; and Ginnifer Goodwin (Big Love), 29.

In a review of the Top 10 films from Sundance, FilmSchoolRejects.com has Smart People at #6 and gives a ringing endorsement to Ellen Page. It seems like everything Ellen Page touches lately turns to gold. Even though she has a supporting role in Smart People, playing the daughter of a very intelligent, but struggling college prof (Dennis Quaid), she still manages to steal the show. Along with Thomas Hayden Church, who plays her loser adopted Uncle, Page’s storyline completely outshines the love story between her character’s father and his doctor (Sarah Jessica Parker).

Halifax native Ellen Page has been nominated for best performance by an actress in a leading role for Juno. Page goes up against Cate Blanchett (Elizabeth: The Golden Age), Julie Christie (Away from Her), Laura Linney (The Savages) and Golden Globe winner Marion Cotillard for her portrayal of French singer Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose. Juno has also been nominated for best motion picture of the year, achievement in directing for Jason Reitman and screenwriter Diablo Cody for original screenplay.
