When I first readTwilight of The Dead, I teared up at the end.
Which is weird for a film of this pop in.
But it has that kind of pull, that combo of horror and heartbreak that I love.
Its what the fans have longed for, and with Brad Anderson at the helm it will be sensational.
Stephanie Holbrook is handling the casting.
Jovovich is repped by Untitled Entertainment, CAA and Hansen Jacobson.
Gabriel is repped by Untitled Entertainment and Gersh.
Anderson is repped by Paradigm.
