Campbell Replaces Patric In Copperhead

Billy Campbell will replace Jason Patric as the lead in Ron Maxwell's new Civil War-era film "Copperhead" says THR.


Based upon author Harold Frederic's anthology--the story follows a close-knit family torn apart by the war between States. Bill Kauffman penned the adapted script.

Campbell will play family head Abner Beech.

Officially Patric departed the project suddenly due to "creative differences" according to producer John Houston. But Deadline says the actor “was dismissed … for refusing to take instructions"

The film is currently shooting in Kings Landing, New Brunswick Canada.
