Jacob Artist Lucky McKee Misfortune

Lucky McKee's upcoming thriller MISFORTUNE has just nabbed another young star to put through the wringer. Said young star is Jacob Artist, a Ryan Murphy alum who has now appeared in both Glee and American Horror Story: Roanoke. Artist will be taking a lead role opposite John Cusack.

He hasn't had much of a chance to prove himself on the silver screen, so it'll be exciting to see what he gets up to in a genre-based film project.

In MISFORTUNE, written by Jared Butler and Lars Norberg: 

Sharp, quick-witted businessman Miller (Cusack) left everything behind, including his family, to start a new life after embezzling a client’s money.  All had been going according to plan until he becomes separated from his cash in the middle of the wilderness. Three young friends happen upon the lost fortune, and a desperate and violent Miller will do anything to get his money back.

Daniel Zovatto, Willa Fitzgerald, and BOYHOOD's Ellar Coltrane fill out the cast.

MISFORTUNE is scheduled to begin filming in Savannah, Georgia on October 3rd, and it definitely sounds like a movie I'm going to want to check out once it's released.
