'Doubt' star and Oscar nominee Viola Davis continues her streak as one of Hollywood's hottest items. The actress has been cast in yet two more films -- 'Trust' and 'It's Kind of a Funny Story' -- according to Variety.

Davis will join Clive Owen and Catherine Keener on screen in 'Trust.' The movie, directed by "Friends" star David Schwimmer, follows parents who find out their 14-year-old daughter has been victimized by a sexual predator on the internet. The predator poses as a teenager in a chat room.

In 'Funny Story,' Davis will play a psychiatrist who helps a clinically depressed 15-year-old boy work through his anxieties in an adult psychiatric ward.

The actress can currently be seen in theaters as the mayor of Philadelphia in 'Law Abiding Citizen.'
