Amy Acker, who battled vampires and other demons on the WB's "Angel," will take on a less perilous role for her latest big-screen outing.
The 27-year-old Texan will star in "The Novice," an independent coming-of-age film by writer-director Murray Robinson, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The drama centers on a Jesuit seminarian whose living is threatened when he falls in love with a humanitarian flower child (Acker).
"Novice" will begin shooting at the end of July in Mobile, Ala.
Acker played the brainy, chatty and ravenous Winifred Burkle on "Angel" for three seasons. Her most recent feature film credit is 2002's "Catch Me If You Can."
