She sadly passed away in December 2009 aged just 32.
But Brittany Murphy’s final film, Something Wicked, is only just about to be released following delays as several scenes had to be re-shot after the blonde actress’ death.
The movie will make its debut on April 4 in Eugene, Oregon, despite wrapping just months before the star died of pneumonia.
Something Wicked tells the story of a young couple who run into trouble when secrets from their past catch up with them, and the film’s writer and producer Joe Colleran admits Brittany’s final performance is ‘very chilling’ and describes the motion picture as being ‘very emotional’.
He told the New York Daily News: ‘The first months of reviewing the footage and starting to put things together and then seeing her and hearing her voice, it’s very emotional.
‘It is an additional responsibility, you do want her performance to be the best it can be, because unfortunately it’s her last performance.’
As a result of having to re-shoot part of the movie, producers had to get permission to be allowed back to film at specific outdoor locations in Oregon.
What’s more, some scenes had to be shot in specific weather conditions.
Despite the long wait, Joe insists fans of the late actress will be delighted with her performance in the movie, Daily Mail informs.
