Chuck Russell has chosen his young PRODIGY
Posted by Matt Holmes
Chuck Russell will direct Max Thieriot in Prodigy, a low budget science fiction film produced over at Intrepid Pictures and Kincine.
The project is based on Dave Kalstein’s 2006 novel of the same of which the author has also wrote this film adaptation…
Thieriot who auditioned for the role of The Flash in last year’s ill-fated JLA project will lead as William Cooley, a rebellious student at a high class boarding school charging a $500,000 fee in 2036 because it literally produces world leaders with the help of drugs. Three days before graduation and several of its alumni are murdered and William becomes a top suspect.
The actor has appeared in Nancy Drew, Jumper and is the lead in Wes Craven’s new horror 25/8.
Russell’s credits include such wide and varied efforts as A Nightmare on Elm Street 3, The Blob, The Mask, Eraser, Bless the Child and The Scorpion King.
The film will shoot in Valencia at the Ciudad de la Luz Studios in Alicante, Spain from October 6th.
