Alexandra Daddario cast as lead in THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 3D

Leatherface is approaching his return in THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 3D, which is quickly coming together as production approaches. A couple of weeks ago, we got a little bit of insight on the plot of the upcoming film, and were introduced to the female lead of the film, Heather.

There is now a face to the character, as Alexandra Daddario (PERCY JACKSON) has been cast in the role.

In the film, Heather travels to Texas to pick up an inheritance she was awarded, but finds out she shares lineage with none other than Leatherface. What a shock that must be, not exactly the thing you’d hope to pop up on ancestry.com. Joining her will be Tania Raymonde (Lost), who will play her best friend Nikki.

The idea of a third film to join the new era of Leatherface has been around since 2009, with 3D being one of its major selling points. Then the film seemingly disappeared, until now.

Director John Luessenhop is now in talks to join the project. The helmer most recently directed TAKERS. Continue reading “LEATHERFACE 3D gets a director” →

New TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE gets new writers

The news of another new TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE film came out a while back, when Twisted Pictures (the sickos behind the SAW franchise) picked up the rights to the series. It wasn’t too long before Twisted Pictures started setting up their most advanced trap yet, a 3D TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE film. This extremely advanced engineering marvel of death is still chugging along, but now with new writers.

Adam Marcus and Debra Sullivan are working on their version of the script, which is said to take place 35 years after the original film. In fact, they are wanting it to pick up immediately after the end of the original film, then flash forward into present day. The film isn’t supposed to have anything to do with the remakes of a couple years ago, thankfully. Continue reading “New TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE gets new writers” →
