Last week PJ told you all what the synopsis for QUARANTINED was going to be. Well today I’ve got some news for you via IESB.net on the newest casting info.
It seems HEROES hottie Dania Ramirez (pictured) has signed on to star in QUARANTINED alongside Jennifer Carpenter, Columbus Short, Johnathon Schaech, and Jay Hernandez. Now I have to admit, after hearing Jennifer Carpenter scored the lead role, I wasn’t all that excited. But now that Dania Ramirez is on, I’m definately psyched! (can you blame me?) Of course I’m sure QUARANTINED won’t live up to the original, [REC]. I haven’t even seen [REC], but it’s impossible to ignore the explosive hype surrounding it.
QUARANTINED’s synopsis reads:
Television reporter Angela Vidal (Jennifer Carpenter) and her cameraman (Steve Harris) are assigned to spend the night shift with a Los Angeles Fire Station. After a routine 911 call takes them to a small apartment building, they find police officers Wilensky (Columbus Short) and McCreedy (Andrew Fiscella) already on the scene in response to blood curdling screams coming from one of the apartment units. Unbeknownst to them, a woman has contracted a rare strain of rabies. When they try to leave the building with those injured from a wild attack by the infected woman, they find that they’ve been locked in. Indeed, there are police, SWAT and CDC crews securing the building. But phones, internet, televisions and cell phone access have been cut-off, and officials are not relaying information to those quarantined inside.
It’s written by Drew Dowdle and written and directed by John Erick Dowdle. It’s set to hit sometime in 2008.
Now I see why everyone loves HEROES – Dania Ramirez
