The Collider Writes: Following the success of his big-screen debut in Super 8, 15-year-old Joel Courtney has just landed a couple more projects. Variety reports that the actor is currently in talks to star as Tom Sawyer in Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn and he’s also in negotiations for the indie The Healer. Tom Sawyer will be written and directed by Jo Kastner, based on the classic Mark Twain tale. Filming is scheduled to begin this August in Bulgaria, because it’s the one place in the world that looks exactly like 1850’s Missouri.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
I was actually wondering if Hollywood would exploit him. He was extremely talented in Super 8 and these roles honestly feel fitting to his character. I would love to check them out just to see how he pulls them off.
That what actors are for I guess. I think he's going to have a long career ahead of him if he doesn't screw his life up. Hopefully he'll have a good support system around him that will keep him in check so he doesn't end up on the wild side of the Hollywood track.
