Katherine Heigl Gets Lead Role in 'Five Killers'

27703pcn Heigl05The rumor mill continues to spin fast and furious with regards to Katherine Heigl’s ‘confirmed’ then denied departure from Grey’s Anatomy. Shonda Rhimes did her best to quell the rumors, but few are particularly convinced. And now there’s news that the actress in question has landed a lead role alongside Ashton Kutcher in an upcoming feature film.

The film Five Killers is a thriller about a vacationing couple that grow to suspect their neighbors may be out to kill them.

Now, there’s no real reason to believe that Heigl can’t do both the show and the film since she’s done it before. But if the actress does indeed hope to pull out of TV and move full-time into the movie business, then this is a step in that direction.

For now, we can only wait for an official confirmation from ABC and Katherine Heigl herself that she is indeed leaving or indeed staying with the show. Hopefully, she’ll be able to do both things.
