The Evil Dead remake lands Jessica Lucas
The story centers on a group of friends who spend the weekend in a remote cabin, only to unwittingly unleash an evil force after reading from The Book of the Dead. We reported last month that Suburgatory star Jane Levy will play the female lead Mia, who goes on the trip to try and kick her drug addiction. Jessica Lucas will play Mia's best friend, who is also a nurse. Shiloh Fernandez and Lou Taylor Pucci have already signed on for the remake. Elizabeth Blackmore will play Shiloh Fernandez's fiancee.
Federico Alvarez is directing The Evil Dead from a script he co-wrote with Rodolfo Sayagues, which was rewritten by Diablo Cody. Production is scheduled to begin next month in New Zealand.
Evil Dead was released April 5th, 2013 and stars Jane Levy, Shiloh Fernandez, Lou Taylor Pucci, Jessica Lucas, Elizabeth Blackmore, Phoenix Connolly, Jim McLarty, Sian Davis. The film is directed by Fede Alvarez.
