As details slowly begin to emerge on this already draining “secret J.J. Abrams project” Cloverfield we now have a few cast members as The Hollywood Reporter drudged up some new details on the flick:
The casting process was just as mysterious. No scripts or even scene pages were sent out; agents who were contacted were simply asked if their client wanted to be in the movie or not. Eventually a cast, made up mostly of relative unknowns, was put together; it includes Michael Stahl-David (“The Black Donnellys”), Odet Jasmin, Mike Vogel (pictured) and Lizzy Kaplan (“The Class”).
Cloverfield began shooting in mid-June in New York on a modest budget of about $30 million and is set for a January 18, 2008 release. Matt Reeves is directing.
