David Tennant and Christopher Mintz-Plasse Join ‘Fright Night’
Fans of the original Fright Night have to be geeking-out over Disney’s remake of the fang-tasticly fun 1985 vampire film. According to The Hollywood Reporter‘s Heat Vision Blog, David Tennant (Doctor Who, pictured left) will play the overmatched vampire expert portrayed in the original by Roddy McDowall, and McLovin himself (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) is on board as Evil Ed, the nerdy friend who finds himself vulnerable to the neighborhood blood-sucker. With paper-boy faced Anton Yelchin (Star Trek) set to star as the paranoid hero, and Colin Farrell cast as the neck-biter next door, director Craig Gillespie (Lars and the Real Girl) has a remake that just might not suck.
David Tennant long ago won the hearts of theatre audiences with a spate of laudable Shakespearean roles on the biggest British stages.
And when he turned his sights to television, he instantly amassed an avid following when he was cast as Doctor Who. Yet what has so far eluded the Scottish actor is a breakthrough role in a feature film. Now, that is set to change. Tennant, one of the most recognisable actors on the stage and small screen – he was named the most popular actor by the National Television Awards in 2006, 2007 and 2008 – has been cast in his first lead role opposite fellow Scot, Kelly MacDonald, who is a well-established face in Hollywood.

David Tennant and Patrick Stewart star in this critically acclaimed production of Shakespeare’s masterpiece from Britain’s renowned Royal Shakespeare Company. No recent stage production in Britain has attracted the excitement and nearly unanimous critical praise as this Hamlet. Tennant’s interpretation was recognized as defining the role for a generation, and Stewart’s complex Claudius won the Olivier award, Britain’s highest stage honor. In this specially-shot screen version, filmed on location rather than in the theater, Tennant and Stewart reprise their roles. Dynamic, exciting and contemporary, it breathes new life into Shakespeare’s greatest play.
REX IS NOT YOUR LAWYER: This off-cycle pilot staged a comeback after being pronounced dead when the network didn’t pick it up for midseason. The legal drama’s producers did more work on the pilot they had originally rushed, including adding voiceover. The reworked pilot tested well, and the project has received an order for two back-up scripts.
