Trachtenberg Is Disney's 'Ice Princess'

Los Angeles (Hollywood Reporter) - Michelle Trachtenberg ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer") is skating to "Ice Princess," a Disney comedy described as "Flashdance" meets "Bring It On."

She would play a brainy ugly duckling who realizes her dream of becoming a champion figure skater with the help of physics, a disgraced coach, three snooty ice princesses, a chorus of stage parents and the hunky boy who drives the Zamboni ice resurfacing machine.

Shooting is scheduled to start in late March or early April with Andrew Waller at the helm.

Trachtenberg is also in early negotiations for a four-episode arc on HBO's "Six Feet Under." She would play Celeste, a pop singer who is protected by Keith Charles (series regular Michael St. Patrick).

Trachtenberg next stars in the DreamWorks comedy "Eurotrip," set for release next month, followed by the indie drama "Mysterious Skin" for director Gregg Araki .
