Brittany Murphy quit Disney movie Tinkerbell, bosses at the studio claim.

It was reported the actress was ditched from her role providing the voice of the animated fairy, and replaced by 19-year-old Mae Whitman.

But Disney executives say Murphy left the project because of scheduling problems.

A representative tells OK! magazine, “When John Lasseter came on board, the schedule changed, and the new schedule didn’t work for her.”

Murphy would join a cast that includes Shirley MacLaine, Olympia Dukakis, Rosario Dawson and Channing Tatum.

“Poor Things” revolves around two female con artists who befriend and then murder homeless men in order to collect on their insurance policies.

EEEEWWWW!  What the crap happened to Brittany Murphy’s face!!

I wonder if all that greencard gossip was true?

Brittany Murphy’s new British husband insists the numerous arrest warrants and civil lawsuits logged against him are normal procedure for a successful businessman. Producer Simon Monjack wed Murphy earlier this month after just four months of dating.

Last week, the National Enquirer exposed the Brit as an illegal visitor and dug up information suggesting Monjack has a civil judgment against him and a series of felony arrest warrants. But Monjack, who faces a court hearing about his future in America in July and could be kicked out of the country, insists his reputation is being tarnished by people jealous of his success.

He said, “Like all businessmen, I have faced many lawsuits. It is a real tragedy that success, greed, envy and celebrity are the motivation for attacking my family and character.”

Monjack’s lawyer claims all cases against his client have either been dismissed, are settled or are being resolved. He also expects the arrest warrants to be dropped.
