The beautiful Sophia Bush (One Tree Hill) has officially joined the cast of Platinum Dunes and Universal Pictures’ remake of The Hitcher, which was written by Jake Wade Wall and Eric Brent, according to Production Weekly. Production is scheduled to begin this June in Austin, Texas. In the original, which starred Rutger Hauer and Jennifer Jason Leigh, a young man transporting a car to another state is stalked along the road by a cunning and relentless serial killer who eventually frames the driver for a string of murders. Chased by police and shadowed by the killer, the driver’s only help comes from a truck stop waitress.
