ShockTillYouDrop.com reports that
Danielle Harris
(
Halloween II) has been cast as Barbara in the 3D CGI
pic Night of the Living Dead: Origins.
The
film, to be directed by newcomer Zebediah de Soto and produced by Simon West and Simon West Productions president Jib Polhemus, will be an origin story without the involvement of George A. Romero.
De Soto, who wrote the script with David R. Schwartz, wants to update the tale partially by bringing out the characters' backstories and make what he called "an American-style
anime."
