This marks the fourth project with a projected date in 2006 for Miss Russell. The others are "Waitress," "Mission: Impossible III," and "Butterfly, a Grimm Love Story." 2006 could mark a resurgence for the young actress whose acting gigs have been sporadic since the exposure she got from her title role on "Felicity" wore off. --Terrence Ryan
