We have two maternal castings to report: one has to do with the action thriller Abduction starring Taylor Lautner and the other is a dark adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood. Both Elisabeth Rohm (“Law & Order“) and Virginia Madsen have been tapped to play moms in the respective films. See who’s who below…
Academy Award nominated actress Virginia Madsen has signed on for her next major gig and it’s on television. A lot of actors have been making the jump from the big screen to the small screen to find juicier roles. According to Movieline, Madsen has signed on to star as the lead in the upcoming ABC series, “Scoundrels.”
Well the trailer made it in time for Halloween, but not the movie. The film stars Amanda Crew, Virginia Madsen, Kyle Gallner, Elias Koteas and Martin Donovan. The movie is “based” on a true story (I love that line, it’s used to make you think that all the special effects they’ve conjured up could actually happen and therefore terrify you even more- genuinely I fall for it every time). The story is about a family that is forced to relocate near a clinic where their teenage son was being treated for cancer. The family begins experiencing violent, supernatural events that the parents first blame on stress from the illness, but they later discover that their new home is a former mortuary with a dark past. Creeped out yet?
Check out the trailer below…
