Casting continues for Joe Lynch’s horror flick KINGHTS OF BADASSDOM, about a group of Live Action Role Players (LARPs) who accidentally summon a demon. Just yesterday we heard Steve Zahn and “True Blood’s” Ryan Kwanten will be joining Peter Dinklage and Douglas Tait in the production, and now we know of another name joining the LARP community.
According to Bloody-Disgusting, “Community” star Danny Pudi (pictured right) is the latest to be Knighted. That’s right yo, everyone’s favorite TV film buff Abed Nadir is going from geek to badass!
Written by Kevin Dreyfus and Matt Wall, KNIGHTS OF BADASSDOM follows:
A huge group of dedicated, costumed LARP-ers (Live Action Role-Players) , dressed like knights, elves & various characters, who give up their cell phones and take to the woods for the Central New Jersey Knights of Badassdom Adventure Society, where they are set to re-enact a dungeons and dragons scenario right out of the mythical Middle Ages.
After being dumped by his sexy girlfriend Beth, Joe reluctantly decides to join Eric and his Larping friends in the woods rather than stay behind and feel sorry for his newly single status. There he meets hot, ass-kicking, intimidating huntress LARPer Gwen, and finds himself a surreal adventure wilder than he ever imagined when a make-believe wizard casts an all-too-real spell from an ancient book he bought on EBay, releasing an actual demon with a taste for human blood — and souls — that starts systematically decimating the players in this suddenly deadly “game.” Will our guys become the heroes they have been pretending to be before time runs out?
The flick looks to lens next month in Spokane, Washington.
Stay posted for more!
