Two months to the day after it was announced that Simon Pegg would be playing the lead bad guy in COOTIES directors Jonathan Milott and Cary Murnion's home invasion thriller BECKY, a new announcement was made: Pegg had to leave the project due to scheduling issues and has been replaced by Kevin James.
Yes, the King of Queens, the man who played Paul Blart, will be playing the merciless villain in a thriller that has been described as "JOHN WICK with a teenage girl". Well, I've never seen him do something like this before, so it's interesting to see him branching out.
Lulu Wilson of ANNABELLE: CREATION, OUIJA: ORIGIN OF EVIL, and The Haunting of Hill House is the teenage girl in the film. Written by Nick Morris, Ruckus Skye, and Lane Skye, BECKY follows
14-year-old Becky as she’s brought to a weekend getaway at a lake house by her father in an effort to try to reconnect after her mother’s death. The trip takes a turn for the worse when a group of convicts on the run, led by the merciless Dominick, suddenly invade the lake house. Becky, not daddy’s little girl anymore, decides to take matters into her own hands.
Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman, and Russ Posternak of Yale Productions are producing the film with Raphael Margules and J.D. Lifshitz of BoulderLight.
