Shelley's last movie (theatrical release) to date, is House Arrest, 1996. Directed by her husband Harry Winer, the movie starred Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Pollak, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jennifer Tilly, to name a few.
Also in the cast is Shelley and Harry's daughter Rosie Winer (as she is credited) who played a flower girl in the flashback scene in the movie.
Shelley is uncredited in the film but her character actually has a name. She is Dr. Erica Gilliland, Ph.D., writer of the book Feel The Fear And Go For It. Dr. Gilliland only appears on a TV screen and on the back cover of her book. Shelley's appearance in the film is short but delightful.
Shelley Hack was originally slated to play the role of public defender Christine Sullivan on the second season of Night Court in 1984. "I'll be doing my research at the New York court," Shelley said. "I always look forward to researching a role. It will be interesting." Christine Sullivan was to be introduced in the second episode of the season entitled "Daddy for the Defense." But after two days of shooting, Shelley was dropped from the cast when producer Reinhold Weege decided she wasn't right for the part. "After growing conflicts between the producer and actress, it was mutually decided at the 11th hour that she wasn't right for Night Court." Wouldn't it be great if Shelley's lost Night Court scenes were to surface?
