Ellen Page is jumping from Juno to Jane Eyre.
The Oscar-nominated actress is about to take an iconic role--starring as the title character in BBC Films' new big-screen version of Charlotte Brontë's classic 1847 novel.
For her first period piece, Page will put on an accent to play the orphaned English protagonist who, after being cruelly abused by her aunt, is sent to live in a charity school. She eventually lands a job as a governess and falls for her boss.
