According to “Halloween” actress Danielle Harris herself (via Twitter) and STYD she’s landed the lead female role in Zebediah DeSoto's recently announced reboot of “Night of the Living Dead: Origins.
"All you're good luck wishes worked! Guess who's gonna be Barbara?!"
She will play Barbara, who finds herself locked in a country house whose character has roots in George Romero’s original “Night of the Living Dead"
Zebediah de Soto and David R. Schwartz co-wrote the script described as an origin story without the involvement of Romero. The intent is to update the tale by diving into the characters' back stories.
When a Stranger Calls remake director ' Simon West and Jib Polhemus are producing
Harris has more than enough genre cred to pull this off. While I'm not jumping out of my skin over the backstory notion--Halloween-2007 and its sequel proved that that's not always a smart move...I'm very happy for Harris just the same...
