Bloody Disgusting have reported that actress Willa Ford has joined the cast of the upcoming Platinum Dunes’ remake of ‘Friday the 13th’.
“I am a hockey fan and I was just listening to NHL Live, which is a radio show/tv show on the NHL Network. There is a hockey player named Mike Modano who plays for the Dallas Stars. His wife is actress Willa Ford, and she was on the show talking about her husband’s team and how they’re doing in the playoffs. After a while of talking to her, the host of the show asked her what she has been up to and she says that she has just been cast in the Friday the 13th remake. She said she went on a casting call and got the part.”
The cast also includes Danielle Panabaker, Amanda Righetti, Jared Padalecki, Nick Mennell, Aaron Yoo, Travis Van Winkle and Derek Mears.
‘Friday the 13th’, which is being directed by Marcus Nispel and written by both Damian Shannon and Mark Swift, is due in US theatres on February 13th 2009 (a Friday of course!).
