The Neon Demon Takes a Bite Out of Karl Glusman
We still don’t know all that much about Nicolas Winding Refn’s The Neon Demon, though we’re told it’s a female-driven film that’s potentially about flesh-hungry supermodels. If that sounds good to you, then read on for the latest casting news!
Variety reports today that Karl Glusman (Stonewall) has just landed a role in the film, though specific character details are being kept under wraps. We should be learning more soon, as production is slated to begin March 30th.
The Neon Demon also stars Keanu Reeves, Christina Hendricks, Elle Fanning (Super 8), Abbey Lee (Drive), Jena Malone (The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1), and Bella Heathcote (Beneath Hill 60).
Refn said of The Neon Demon, “One morning I woke and realized I was both surrounded and dominated by women. Strangely, a sudden urge was planted in me to make a horror film about vicious beauty.”
Refn’s regular collaborators, editor Matthew Newman and composer Cliff Martinez, will be joined by The Grandmaster director of photography Philippe Le Sourd on the film. Refn’s partner, Lene Borglum, will produce under their Space Rocket banner.
