According to Variety:
Chandler Canterbury and Boyd Holbrook are in final negotiations to round out the cast of Open Road Films’ “The Host,” an adaptation of “Twilight” author Stephenie Meyer’s popular sci-fi novel.
Canterbury will play Ronan’s younger brother, who she goes on an arduous journey to find, while Holbrook will play Abel’s macho brother.<
He (Canterbury) has appeared in David Fincher's "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and Alex Proyas' "Knowing," and will soon be seen in D.J. Caruso's "The Goats," as well as the indie "Plastic Jesus."
Holbrook, who recently played Kevin Costner's son in History Channel's "Hatfields & McCoys," has appeared in Gus Van Sant's "Milk" and Vera Farmiga's "Higher Ground."
Although the variety article does not mention the parts by name, anyone who has read the book knows that they are obviously referring to the parts of Jamie (Melanie’s brother) and Kyle (Ian’s brother)
Diane Kruger In Talks for The Host
January 20, 2012 By 31 Comments
Deadline New York is reporting that Diane Kruger is in negotiations to play the Seeker in the film adaptation of “The Host”. Diane is known for the National Treasure films and Inglorious Basterds. The part of the Seeker is essentially the villain of the story as she hunts down Wanderer/Melanie. It should also be noted that Stephenie Meyer has stated in the past that should she continue “The Host” as a trilogy, the second book in the series would be called “The Seeker” and the third would be “The Soul.” With the film being credited as the first in a trilogy, this could mean that whomever is cast as the Seeker takes on a larger role in the second film.
The film will star Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons and Jake Abel with Andrew Niccol as the director. It is set to be released March 29, 2013.
Tell us what you think in the comments. Can you see Diane as The Seeker? And how excited are you for this new film trilogy based on Stephenie’s books?
