First Thesp to See Red

Though I don’t remember it ever being officially announced, I guess this is about as close as we’re going to get...

Variety is reporting that Kyle Gallner is the first to join the cast of Red, the adaptation of the Jack Ketchum novel (the third in two years!) that's being helmed by May director Lucky McKee. Red is the tale of a man who goes above and beyond in the hunt to seek an apology from the three insensitive bastards who killed his dog, Red, and just how far things can go when class warfare becomes a factor.

In other Ketchum adaptation news, today we learned that production on The Girl Next Door has just wrapped, with some early test screenings making their way onto the mean streets of New York in the coming weeks.

Hopefully we’ll be getting more info on both films for you very soon!
