Unlike many others, I never really found the redeeming value of Greg McLean's breakout horror hit, Wolf Creek. While certainly stylish and extremely grim, it also just felt sort of pointless. So when talk began that he was prepping a sequel, it didn't really register as much of a big deal. While it appears that film may be on indefinite hold for a variety of reasons, McLean has rounded up one heck of a cast for his next project, a thriller titled Kill Me Three Times.
ScreenDaily(via ThePlaylist) reports that Abbie Cornish, Alice Braga, Ben Mendelsohn, and Sullivan Stapleton will star in the film, with Braga's character the centerpiece of three tales of blackmail, revenge, and murder in the surfing town of Eagle's Nest. Despite a few recent bumps in the road, Cornish is still one of the hottest actresses around, while Braga is due to see her stock rise when On the Road opens. Mendelsohn and Stapleton, both Animal Kingdom alums, have some major projects on the way as well. Mendelsohn will appear in Killing Them Softly(formerly Cogan's Trade), while Stapleton will star in 300: Battle of Artemisia.
Production kicks off later this year, likely for release in 2013.
