The now grown-up Haley Joel Osment is set to star in the Steve Niles' comic book film adaptation of Wake the Dead says Variety


Osment will play Victor Franklin, a college student experimenting with reversing death in this contemporary take on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein tale

Jay Russell will direct from a screenplay he co-wrote with James V. Hart. Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash will produce the pic along with Michael Williams and Rob Eric.

Here's what Eric had to say about Osment's casting.

"This role allows him to break out of his shell and he will have no problem handling it."
