If you've seen
"500 Days of Summer" (and if you haven't already, I hope you will), you surely would have noticed that scene-stealer who played
Joseph Gordon Levitt's "insightful" younger sister. Precociousness! That superstar-to be is
Chloe Moretz and she's slated to appear as the lead in the remake of Swedish vampire masterpiece,
"Let the Right One In".
The
dumbed-down Hollywood remake will be called
"Let Me In" and will be directed by Matt Reeves, he of
Cloverfield fame.
The film follows a young bullied boy who befriends a young female vampire living in secrecy with her guardian. You can read my capsule review of the original Swedish film
here. Rounding up the cast are
Richard Jenkins and
Jimmy Pinchak.
Will this give
"Twilight" a run for its money?
Ahh, ewan.
