Homefront Update: Bosworth Joins the Team

Friday, Sep 21, 2012

The Hollywood Reporter announced later today that Kate Bosworth is joining Jason Statham and James Franco in Homefront, Millennium Films’ action movie scripted by Sylvester Stallone. Kate Bosworth is known for films including “Superman Returns” and “Remember the Titans,” and is engaged to Michael Polish – which you may remember from Stay Cool.

The project, with Gary Fleder in the director’s chair, follows an ex-DEA agent (Statham) who seeks a peaceful life and moves his family to a quiet town. Tranquility is shattered when he crosses path with a drug traffickers and a meth kingpin named Gator (Franco).

Bosworth will play Gator’s meth-addicted sister, who inadvertently starts the feud when her son, a bully, gets his butt handed to him by Statham’s daughter at school. She turns to Gator, psychotically wanting retribution.

Production is due to begin October 1 in New Orleans.
