Actor's Hollywood career to take a ghostly twist with horror comedy about a businessman specialising in haunted houses
Despite a less-than-stellar result for the remake of Arthur, Russell Brand's film career shows no signs of slowing down. He will continue to wander our screens after signing up for big-studio comedy horror The Hauntrepreneur.
The comedian will star as an elderly man who helps a family fit into a new town by building them a haunted house filled with weird spectres, according to The Wrap. The script has been written by Scott Rosenberg (Con Air, Beautiful Girls) but details of other cast decisions and who is to direct have yet to be announced.
Brand will be seen next in Rock of Ages, a jukebox musical based in 1980s LA that also stars Tom Cruise and Alec Baldwin. He's attached, in addition, to Diablo Cody's as-yet-untitled directorial debut, in which a young woman starts to doubt her faith after surviving a plane crash.
