Lily Collins: 'Romeo & Juliet' Pushed Back a Bit

Lily Collins is a new Juliet…but just when will we see her as Juliet?

The 21-year-old actress isn’t sure.

Lily tells MTV, “They came to me last year with the script�”it’s based in the Renaissance period�”and they wanted me to play Juliet,” she said. “I’ve been a huge Shakespeare fan ever since I could read. For me, it was a dream role.”

She continued, “I’m still attached as Juliet. With everything else that comes up, if that’s not set to go, then that gets pushed. It’s still there and I hope it does work out.”

TELL JJJ: Who would you cast as Lily’s Romeo?
