Rob Zombie has announced on his MySpace blog the addition of actors Tom Towles and Richmond Arquette who will appear in his upcoming Halloween remake, now filming in Los Angeles.

Richmond Arquette (brother of Patricia and Rosanna) will play Deputy Charles, while Zombie did not mention what role Tom Towles (Grindhouse, The Devil's Rejects, House of 1000 Corpses) plays.

Variety reports that Hanna Hall (The Virgin Suicides) and Daryl Sabara (Spy Kids) have joined the cast. Hall plays Michael Myers' older sister, Sabara a school bully whom Myers stalks.

Rob Zombie's vision of this film is an entirely new take on the legend and will satisfy fans of the classic Halloween legacy while beginning a new chapter in the Michael Myers saga. This new movie will not only appeal to horror fans, but to a wider movie-going audience as well. It will not be a copycat of any prior films in the Halloween franchise.

Halloween will be released on August 31st, 2007.

Halloween was released August 31st, 2007 and stars Malcolm McDowell, Scout Taylor-Compton, Tyler Mane, Daeg Faerch, Sheri Moon Zombie, William Forsythe, Danielle Harris, Kristina Klebe. The film is directed by Rob Zombie.
