Joining Kier and Dafoe
Academy Award nominee Michael Shannon (Revolutionary Road) is working with director Werner Herzog and executive producer David Lynch on the horror film My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done, a picture announced early last year.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Shannon is playing the lead, a San Diego man “who acts out a Sophocles play in his mind and kills his mother with a sword.” Shooting is expected to begin in Peru from a script by Herzog and Herbert Golder.
Shannon has appeared in Dead Birds, Bug and World Trade Center. Reports in December also say Udo Kier and Willem Dafoe will co-star.
