That certainly sounds like something Bret Easton Ellis would write a hell of an adaptation of. And you’d imagine, from the types of roles they’ve played in the past, Panettiere would be Chrissie and Reed would be Tracy.
So now, the whole package – director, screenplay, actresses, etc – just needs to find some financing and we’ve got ourselves a movie. Myriad is certainly confident they will too. The Variety story says they hope to start shooting in Louisiana in the Spring.
Has anyone read Downers Grove? Are you sick of these angsty high school horror stories or do you think Bret Easton Ellis’ involvement puts this one on a different level?
