[Movies] UPDATED: Adrien Brody and Topher Grace In Negotiations To Join Predators Posted by Larry Csonka on 10.07.2009
Brody confirmed to star in film...
UPDATED:Variety has confirmed that Adrien Brody will star in the film.
ORIGINAL: According to The Hollywood Reporter's Blog, Adrien Brody and Topher Grace are both on negotiations to join the cast of Predators. Danny Trejo and Walt Goggins are signed on for the film, and other additions could include Alice Braga (I Am Legend), Mahershalalhashbaz Ali (The 4400), and MMA fighter Oleg Taktarov (Bad Boys II). The film will shoot in Hawaii, with Nimrod Antal directing and Robert Rodriguez producing. Here is the latest on the plot, from THR:
"Brody is a man who ends up inheriting the mantle of leader and is known as a hunter of men. Grace would play an accountant-type whose unassuming facade masks a dangerous serial killer. Braga is the tough female killer. Ali is a man not afraid to die, Goggins is the loose canon of the group and Taktarov is a former Russian special ops agent. Trejo, already cast, is Cuchillo, a hardened warrior with twin uzis strapped to his back."
That's it. They've officially killed any interest I had left in PG Predators.

Who's THE lead? No lead character? Doesn't sound like the script has any direction to me.

Goggins is a great actor. Hopefully this will give him a chance to show it on the big screen. His look and his performance on the Shield has unfortunately caused him to be typecast (see Miracle at St. Anna).

Seeing the name Topher Grace ruined any interest I had in the project.

I guess they have no interest in making money with this film.

Predators like Predator?
And the directors name is Nimrod?
Oh well even The Full Monty made money
