Sure Shots: Mireille Enos; Alexander Ludvig; Chloe Moretz


* Better than almost anyone I've seen lately, Mireille Enos has used her TV success in both The Killing and Big Love to launch a film career that is really starting to take off. She'll appear in Gangster Squad, World War Z, and is currently filming the West Memphis Three film, Devil's Knot. Now you can add David Ayer's Ten(formerly Breacher) to her busy schedule. The cop thriller stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sam Worthington as part of a DEA Task Force that are picked off one-by-one after robbing a drug cartel for millions of dollars. Enos will play a member of the team and the wife of Worthington's character. Terrence Howard, Olivia Williams, Joe Manganiello, Dawn Olivieri, and Malin Akerman co-star.  [Deadline]

* So his character in The Hunger Games may not have survived to be a part of the upcoming sequel, that doesn't mean Alexander Ludvig can't be a Lone Survivor for Peter Berg. The young actor has joined the cast of Berg's Navy SEAL film, which is based on Marcus Luttrell's memoir about a 2005 incident in which his team was ambushed by Taliban forces in Afghanistan, where they were sent to kill a terrorist leader. Mark Wahlberg is playing Luttrell, with Taylor Kitsch, Eric Bana, Ben Foster, and Emile Hirsch the other members of the squad. Ludvig will play Navy SEAL Shane Patton. Ludvig just recently completed filming on Grown Ups 2 where he'll hopefully put Adam Sandler out to pasture. [Deadline]

* Looks like a Let Me In reunion is in the works, as Chloe Moretz is set to join Kodi Smit-McPhee in the indie film, The Wilderness of James. Written and directed by newcomer Michael Johnson, the film is a coming of age story about a Portland boy dealing with the absence of his father. Filming begins next month, so it probably won't interfere with her return as Hit-Girl in Kick-Ass 2: Balls to the Wall. Moretz is currently filming a remake of Carrie, which you can check out the first images from here. [Deadline]
