Holly Valance is Taken

Australian actress Holly Valance is on a roll right now. It ain’t quite as tasty as a multi-grain roll with ham, cheese, bit of fresh lettuce, some canned tomato and pineapple to boot… but it’s a roll all the same. The former “Neighbours” star cum “Prison Break” co-star cum big-screen film star (granted, “D.O.A” only did reasonable business at one theater in Uganda, and only then because tickets were free) seems to have no shortage of offers at the moment. Word is, she’s accepted one of them – a role opposite Maggie Grace and Liam Neeson in the Luc Besson produced “Taken”.

The Pierre Morel directed pic tells of a ex-soldier (Liam Neeson) who discovers his daughter (Maggie Grace) has been kidnapped by slave masters (sorry, nothing about ‘sex’ slaves in the synopsis here) in Europe. No word if Valance is the one holding the whip... or taking a whip.

Valance also recently appeared in the comedy blunder “Pledge This!” opposite Paris Hilton, and was recently rumoured to be up for a part – probably just someone looking to gain pre-finance publicity for the film, in an effort to get it bankrolled, I’m guessing – in the Donald Bradman biopic, “The Bloody Ashes”.
