We're six months out from the release of the fifth film in the PURGE franchise, and Blumhouse, Platinum Dunes, and Universal have announced that the latest person to join the cast is Leven Rambin. Rambin has racked up 40 screen credits over the last fourteen years, among those being roles on the TV shows Gone, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, True Detective, All My Children, and Grey's Anatomy, and in the films THE HUNGER GAMES, CHASING MAVERICKS, PERCY JACKSON: SEA OF MONSTERS, and THE DIRT.
No details on Rambin's PURGE 5 character have been revealed, which is to be expected – no details have been revealed on any of the film's characters. Rambin's co-stars will include Ana de la Reguera, Tenoch Huerta, Will Patton, and Cassidy Freeman.
It has been said that this sequel will
take Purge out of its usual metropolitan setting while still dealing with class and race issues in the way the previous films have.
Everardo Gout is directing from a screenplay by franchise creator James DeMonaco, who has written every film in the series and directed the first three.
DeMonaco is producing PURGE 5 with Sébastien K. Lemercier, Jason Blum, Michael Bay, Brad Fuller, and Andrew Form.
The fifth PURGE film will reach theatres on July 10th.
