Tania Raymonde, the 23-year-old star of ABC’s “LOST” and MTV’s new horror-comedy “Death Valley,” has scored a role in director John Luessenhop’s (Takers) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3-D. She joins costars Alexandra Daddario (Percy Jackson), Sue Rock (Varsity Blues), and Bill Moseley (Manson Girls).
A sequel of sorts, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3-D picks up after the horrific events depicted in Tobe Hooper’s 1974 original. Raymonde will play a small town girl named Nikki who joins her best friend Heather (Daddario) on a trip to claim an inheritance that gives Heather custody of her homicidal cousin Leatherface.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3-D goes into production later this month.
Emmy Rossum, the oft-nude star of Showtime’s white trash drama “Shameless,” will be counting on your tweets and Facebook postings to help her escape director DJ Caruso’s (Disturbia) new nightmare world Inside.
Peep it:
Described as a “social experiment film,” Inside finds Rossum trapped in a room with a laptop and an untraceable internet connection that she uses to mobilize her social media network in the hopes of figuring out where she is being held.
That’s where you come in:
Unlike other productions, “Inside” will engage the audience and allow them to play a role in the film by interacting on social channels.
A social casting call will result with one lucky participant cast to play a role via a YouTube video that will then be incorporated into one of the film’s episodes.
Others can join in the project during the live social experience by posting on the main characters Facebook wall or tweeting which then has the chance of being incorporated into the next film episode.
The film wrapped production yesterday in Los Angeles. It will be released through various social media outlets one piece at a time up until its full-length release on Aug. 14 (complete with your tweets and YouTube videos).
