Brittany Murphy begins working on the indie feature “Across the Hall” Wednesday. She is eyeing a role in the dark comedy “Poor Things” where she would take Lindsay Lohan place.

In “Hall,” Murphy is starring along side Mike Vogel (“Cloverfield”) and Danny Pino (“The Burning Plain”) in a thriller about a brutal standoff between a young man (Vogel), his fiancee and his best friend (Pino). The cast also brings in Dov Davidoff (“Invincible”), Brad Greenquist (“Shiloh Falls”) and Guillermo Diaz (“Weeds”).
