Meet the Intense Peter Vincent in ‘Fright Night 3D’
The boys over at io9 have landed two exclusive images from Dreamworks’ Fright Night 3D, which is having its world premiere at the San Diego Comic-Con this month (it’s so comic related, right?) Said images feature David Tennant, who was cast as Peter Vincent in the remake. But instead of playing a doddering but lovable host of a late-night horror show, Tennant is a Vegas magician who kills vampires when he’s not writhing about on stage in his horrible Criss Angel leather pants. We can not wait to watch Tennant start killing both fake stage vampires and real-life vampires (including Collin Farrell). You’ll get to see him in action when Craig Gillespie’s flick hits theaters on August 19.
“Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) is a high school senior who’s on top of the world–that is until Jerry (Farrell) moves in next door and Charlie discovers that he is a vampire preying on the neighborhood.”
Check out the other still at io9:
Jennifer Holland (“Peacemaker”) and Dave Annable (“Lioness”) will lead the cast of upcoming supernatural Civil War thriller Brine, Deadline reports this afternoon.
B.J. Golnick (“Hunting Hitler”) will be directing Brine.
Brine follows a family of Confederate deserters who escape the Union bombardment of Fort Pulaski with a cache of stolen gold and disappear into the Georgia marshlands.
When they take refuge in a remote plantation house, what first appears to be salvation slowly reveals itself as part of something ancient, predatory and impossible to escape.
Jonah Wharton (Lioness), Sissy Sheridan (Chicken Girls), and Grayson Lay (Outer Banks) also star. The screenplay was written by B.J. Golnick and Jeremy Miller.
“Brine is a story about survival, but it is also a story about inheritance…The violence we pass down, the myths we create to justify it, and the cost of trying to break free,” Golnick previews.
“We intend for the film to feel intimate, historically grounded and deeply unnerving, as if the supernatural elements weren’t invented, but unearthed from the marsh itself.”
