According to Variety Maria Bello (pictured right; A History of Violence, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor) and Stephen Dorff (Blade) are toplining the indie thriller, which is set to begin filming next month in Baton Rouge, LA.
The story, penned by Sherry and Michael Compton, centers on a single mother and child who are carjacked by a bank robber who has no intention of letting them go. Ron Perlman and Saffron Burrows were originally tapped to star with Dan Reed directing. We’ll see how this changing of the guard turns out soon. If it looks Dread worthy, we’ll keep the coverage coming.
