'Vacation' Reboot Adds Elizabeth Gillies, Alec Baldwin and Danny Glover Join 'Andron'


 The reboot of National Lampoon's Vacation has just another passenger for the family Truckster. Elizabeth Gillies, star of Nickelodeon series Victorious, has landed a role in the film, although it's unclear who she'll be playing. Apparently she won't be playing Audrey, the sister of grown-up Rusty Griswold (Ed Helms) who is taking his family on a similarly doomed road trip as the one his father took him on as a child. Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo are back reprising their roles, with Christina Applegate as Rusty's wife, Chris Hemsworth as Audrey's boyfriend, and Charlie Day as a river rafting guide.The Horrible Bosses duo of John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein are directing Vacation in time for a 2015 release.

Here's a pairing that could have made for a pretty awesome Lethal Weapon back in the '80s. Danny Glover and Alec Baldwin are set to star in the sci-fi action flick, Andròn – The Black Labyrinth, which basically sounds like The Maze Runner for adults. Directed by Francesco Cinquemani, it follows a group of men and women who wake up in a dark, claustrophobic maze with no memory of how they got there. To survive they must solve the codes and endure the maze's bizarre tests.
