All About

Holly Hunter

With ''Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason'' finished and voice work for DreamWorks' CGI ''Shark Tale'' nearly complete, Renee Zellweger is set to play Russell Crowe's wife in Ron Howard's long-delayed boxing drama ''Cinderella Man'' and Janis Joplin in the biopic ''Piece of My Heart,'' both due in 2005.

Currently in ''Miracle,'' Patricia Clarkson costars in Lars von Trier's ''Dogville'' (March 26), the girls'-school thriller ''The Woods'' with Agnes Bruckner (fall), and the indie drama ''The Dying Gaul'' with boyfriend Campbell Scott. She'll also depend on the kindness of strangers as ''A Streetcar Named Desire'''s Blanche Dubois at the Kennedy Center in April.

Shohreh Aghdashloo moves to the small screen with the lead in an ABC pilot, ''Secret Service.''

Holly Hunter appears in the romantic comedy ''Little Black Book'' (October) and voices CGI superhero Elastigirl in Disney's penultimate collaboration with Pixar, ''The Incredibles'' (November).

And perhaps not long after Marcia Gay Harden gives birth to twins in April, we'll catch the 2001 Best Supporting Actress winner in Dylan Kidd's indie comedy ''P.S.,'' now seeking distribution.
