Hot on the heels of yesterday’s release date reveal, some more casting news has arrived for the Flatliners reboot; and to say it adds some eye candy to the project is a bit of an understatement.
Per Deadline, supermodel Charlotte McKinney (Carl’s Jr., Guess, Baywatch) will be part of “a funny sex scene involving a nurse (McKinney) and a medical student (James Norton) in the film.”
Flatliners is being directed by Niels Arden Oplev (Sweden’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, TV’s “Mr. Robot”) from a script by Ben Ripley (Source Code). It has a release date of August 18, 2017.
The movie is being produced by Laurence Mark and Michael Douglas (who also produced the original movie). Kiefer Sutherland, who starred in the original, has committed to portraying a “seasoned doctor” in the new version, which stars Ellen Page, Diego Luna, Nina Dobrev, James Norton, and Kiersey Clemens.
The original thriller, which co-starred Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon, Billy Baldwin, and Oliver Platt, followed five medical students who decide to trigger near-death experiences by purposely stopping their hearts. However, as they delve into their work, the experiments become more and more dangerous and scary as they are forced to confront the sins of their pasts as well as contend with the paranormal consequences of crossing a line to the other side.
