Anne Heche will replace Jennifer Jason Leigh in the upcoming film, “Spread,” co-starring Ashton Kutcher.

The Hollywood Reporter says that the reason for the switch was due to Jason Leigh’s rumoured pregnancy, but those reports are unconfirmed.

Heche is best known for her current series, “Men in Trees,” and for her tabloid romance with Ellen DeGeneres in the 1990s.

The film is about a womanizer, and the one lover he scorns in the process.

Production on the film is set to begin this week.
