Kevin Bacon will play the villain in the action-comedy "Super" says Screen Daily.
Bacon plays Jacques, a smooth-talking drug dealer who steals the wife (Liv Tyler) of an average guy (Rainn Wilson), causing the latter to become a one-man crime-fighting force known as The Crimson Bolt.
Ellen Page co-stars.
"Slither" writer/director James Gunn helms the project which is in production until next month.
Gunn said the pic is a "dark, comedic, gritty, very unusual, and grounded film--with love, violence, perseverance, and faith. We need to love Jacques even while he’s doing horrible things Kevin is one of the few actors nimble enough to give life to Jacques, our super villain with a nice streak, Kevin is one of the only actors I know who can pull that off.”
Bacon's performance in '04's The Woodsman bears truth in Gunn's praise of him.
