Former The Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev is taking another trip to the big screen. Coming off the Toronto Film Festival and SpectreFest screenings of horror comedy The Final Girls, she is now headed for Arrivals, I've learned. The actress will join Ender's Game's Asa Butterfield and Game Of Thrones' Maisie Williams in the Peter Hutchings-directed coming-of-age indie.

Dobrev, who left the CW's Vampire Diaries earlier this year after six seasons, will play American flight attendant Izzy, who is the love interest of Butterfield's character. The screenplay by Fergal Rock was a 2013 Academy Nicholl semifinalist. The pic, produced by BCDF Pictures and Kalahari Films & Media, is set to start shooting in South Africa this winter.

Butterfield's Calvin is a hypochondriac college dropout who now works as a baggage handler at Cape Town airport. In a funk, he is pulled into the unconventional bucket list quest of Brit teen Skye, played by GoT's Williams, who also appears on Doctor Who this season. That team-up helps Calvin to face his deepest fears.

Now off the small screen from playing Elena Gilbert on TVD, Dobrev will be seen October 9 on the big screen in the limited release of The Final Girls. Having debuted at SXSW, the Todd Strauss-Schulson directed film also stars Malin Akerman and Silicon Valley's Thomas Middleditch. Degrassi: The Next Generation alum Dobrev previously appeared in last year's Let's Be Cops, 2012's The Perks Of Being A Wallflower, and 2009's Chloe.

Dobrev is repped by CAA, Brillstein Entertainment Partners and Hansen Jacobson.
