Evil Dead’s Shiloh Fernandez and More Head to Backcountry
More casting news has come in for the latest flick entitled Backcountry, not to be confused with the other film called Backcountry that we’ve been covering for a year. Guess we gotta get used to typing the word Backcountry.
From the Press Release:
BACKCOUNTRY, which recently started filming in Sudbury, Ontario, has added Shiloh Fernandez (pictured; Evil Dead, We Are Your Friends, Chronically Metropolitan) and Rossif Sutherland (“Covert Affairs,” “Reign”) to the cast. The suspense thriller is directed by BAFTA Award winner Rob Connolly (Our Neck of the Woods).
BACKCOUNTRY stars Joel Kinnaman (Run All Night, “The Killing,” Suicide Squad) as Elliot Baker, a lonely divorced dad who tries to bond with his sons when his ex-wife, Karen (Rachelle Lefevre; The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, “Under the Dome,” A Gifted Man), leaves them with him to go on vacation. They get stranded in a deserted cabin in the middle of a snowstorm and must rely on each other in order to survive. Tom Holland (Heart of the Sea, The Impossible) and Percy Hynes-White (Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb) play sons Bradley, 15, and Caleb, 12.
Written and produced by Kyle Mann (Wrecked, Push, Capote) and co-produced by Michael Risley with executive producers Jeff Sackman and Jonathan Bronfman, BACKCOUNTRY is produced by Drive Productions in association with JoBro Productions. Tajj Media holds worldwide distribution rights.
BACKCOUNTRY wraps on March 28, 2015.
