Cattrall ices coach role in Dis 'Princess'

Cattrall on 'Ice'

Chris Gardner
Kim Cattrall is heading to the rink, signing on to play a former ice skating phenom in the Walt Disney Co.'s "Ice Princess." The project, directed by Tim Fywell, is Cattrall's first following her Golden Globe-winning run on HBO's "Sex and the City." Cattrall is taking on a role that is quite the opposite of the sexy siren Samantha she played on "Sex and the City" by portraying an ice skating instructor who at one time had a chance to make the Olympics but now is helping Michelle Trachtenberg's character fulfill her skating dreams. Juliana Cannarozzo, Trevor Blumas and Hayden Panettiere round out the cast. Bridget Johnson is producing the project. Writers on the project include Hadley Davis and Leslie Dixon, the latter of whom penned the most recent version. Karen Glass and Kristin Burr are overseeing the project at the studio. Cattrall is repped by ICM and by attorney Kevin Yorn. Her feature credits include "Crossroads" and "15 Minutes," opposite Robert De Niro and Ed Burns. Nominated for four Emmys for her performance on "Sex," Cattrall took home the Globe in 2003.
