Collins ("The Blind Side") was competing with a shortlist of thesps that included Emma Roberts, Kat Dennings, Portia Doubleday and Addison Timlin.

I will try to get a confirmation if she has taken this role or not when I attend the press junket for her upcoming film Priest next Saturday at Wonder Con.
The film will be having a panel on Saturday at Wonder Con.
Heres the information on the panel:

He is joined on his crusade by his niece's boyfriend (Cam Gigandet), a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess (Maggie Q) who possesses otherworldly fighting skills. Confirmed to appear are stars Paul Bettany and Lily Collins, and director Scott Stewart. Esplanade Ballroom
