More Names From 2 Headed Shark Attack Revealed

With the arrival of the first production stills from 2 Headed Shark Attack has also come a bit more information about just who comprises the cast of this future classic. As I've mentioned, it's a large cast, so this news is going to come trickling in, but as of now not only do we have a look at two new cast members and the name of a third, we've also got the first images of two others.

First up is Shannon Stewart in the role of "Lyndsey." There are quite a few Shannon Stewarts on IMDB so I didn't want to speculate as to which one she is, if even she has a profile there as of yet - there are a lot of newcomers in this one, which I think is great, fresh meat ;) - but I was able to find her Vimeo profile, which provides her performance reel from last year.

Next we have Miss Lauren Perez, who will be bringing to life the character of "Jamie," yet another endangered coed. Again, lots of Lauren Perez's out there, so perhaps here we have another fortunate rookie making her big screen (depending on how large your TV is) debut in 2 Headed Shark Attack. Lots of people cutting their teeth on this one (I can't make the puns stop, I've tried, but it's like they're controlling me, sorry...).

And then there's two cast members we've already discussed, David Gallegos (above) and Mercedes Young (right). We already knew Gallegos was playing the role of "Paul," but now we know that Ms. Young will be playing "Liza," as well as getting a look at the two in character.


Now, I can't tell you anything more about these characters for the sake of everyone's hard work and your sense of enjoyment upon the film's release, but I can tell you that as the dude who wrote the script based on the story of another dude (Ed DeRuiter), so far I've been really excited by how this cast is coming together.

Aside from info revealed by the stills, there are a couple more names we've learned are associated with the project, these coming from The Asylum's own page: actress Corinne Nobili and cinematographer Stuart Brereton. Nobili appears to be another newcomer, but has a few projects listed on her IMDB page, while Brereton has served as a camera operator on Torchwood and the latest incarnation of Doctor Who. 

See for yourself the culmination of these talents when director Christopher Douglas-Olen Ray's masterpiece 2 Headed Shark Attack hits DVD on January 17th, 2012.

2 Headed Shark Attack Gets an IMDB Page

The most highly-anticipated shark movie of the 21st Century (in my house, at least), 2 Headed Shark Attack, just got it's official IMDB page. At present the only actors listed are those billed over at The Asylum's page, and to them we already know we can add the names David Gallegos and Gerald Webb, but with a pretty large cast, expect this one to fill up quick with a host of actors and actresses soon to become the stuff of legends. As soon as these future B-icons are revealed, I'll be Googling into their professional lives to give you the lowdown.

2 Headed Shark Attack goes on a feeding frenzy of your mind January 17th, 2012. Believe it.

Another Cast Member of 2 HEADED SHARK ATTACK Revealed!

As production on 2 Headed Shark Attack continues in sunny Florida, we're learning in bits and pieces just who is comprising the cast of this certain-to-be creature classic from The Asylum.

Already we've learned the principal cast consists of notables Carmen Electra ("Baywatch," Scary Movie, Starsky & Hutch), Charlie O'Connell ("Sliders," Cruel Intentions, Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep) and Brooke Hogan ("Hogan Knows Best," upcoming Devour with David Chokachi and Sand Sharks with Corin Nemic), as well as newcomers Christina Bach Norman and David Gallegos; now we're getting word on some of the other cast members, including a familiar face to Asylum fans - the powerfully talented Gerald Webb. 


8-time Asylum vet (Titanic II, Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus, Battle of Los Angeles, Almighty Thor, 2012: Ice Age, Born Bad, upcoming A Haunting in Salem and Zombie Apocalypse) adds a 9th feather to his straitjacket by assuming the role of "Han," one of the Filipino crewmen. That pic below showcases the actor in character, and comes courtesy of the man himself. Webb is an awesome actor, extremely versatile, and is a welcome addition to any Asylum film. I'm not the only one who thinks so. Just this year, Webb received the Golden Cob Rising B Actor Award for his work in Battle Los Angeles. 

In addition to acting in 2 Headed Shark Attack, Webb also served as the film's casting director, which means he's the guy responsible for culling this increasingly-incredible ensemble. 2 Headed Shark Attack will also serve as the fourth time Webb has worked with director Christoper Douglas-Olen Ray, who also helmed Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus and Almighty Thor, as well as the non-Asylum feature Reptisaurus. He's also worked twice with Ray's father, famed B-movie icon Fred Olen Ray, in Silent Venom and the recently-released Turbulent Skies.

Committed regular readers will no doubt remember my exclusive interview with Webb, posted prior to the release of Battle of Los Angeles. For the rest of you, that was a shameless plug to get you to check it out. Obviously.

Anyway, there you have it, another strong addition to a cast that is quickly tying for greatest-ever with the A Haunting in Salem gang: Gerald Webb as "Han," Filipino crewman. I have it on good authority that his Tagalog is coming along quite nicely; that's dedication, people.

2 Headed Shark Attack Casting News - And It's TOO COOL!!!

So, the fine, fine folks over at The Asylum have posted the first cast names for their upcoming creature classic 2 Headed Shark Attack - which I wrote based on a story by Ed DeRuiter for director Christopher Ray - and brace yourself, people, because these are some SPECTACULAR names, the kind of stuff B-movie gold is made of.

First up, in the role of "Babish," the Captain/Professor of the semester-at-sea, we got the great Charlie O'Connell, best known for his work on the TV show "Sliders," "The Bachelor" - on which he was the title fella in question - and films like Dude Where's My Car, The New Guy, and a very cool creature flick I happen to enjoy quite a bit, Kraken, Tentacles of the Deep. Rad flick, and O'Connell gives a great performance in it. Dude's also the brother of Jerry O'Connell, the fat kid from Stand By Me. 

Next up, in the role of "Anne," Babish's wife and ship's medic, is the sultry and stunning Carmen Electra. I'm gonna say that again, because I like it: Carmen Electra is in a movie I wrote. Adolescent Perry is pretty pleased right now. If you don't know who Carmen Electra is, welcome to Earth or happy 0th birthday. Ms. Electra has been in a few horror films, but up to now they've typically had a comedic slant. I for one am super excited to see her take on a straight-up, thrilling, chilling, blood-letting creature feature. 

And then there's "Kate," a prominent student, who shall be portrayed by one Brooke Hogan, best known for being the fruit of Hulk's loins. Believe it or not, Ms. Hogan already has an Asylum connection: her last film, Sand Sharks, was directed by the one and only Mark Atkins, director of Battle of Los Angeles and the upcoming Dragon Crusaders, along with scores of other films.











Beyond these three, the only other cast members mentioned are Christina Bach Norman and David Gallegos, who will be playing other prominent students.

This one's a big cast, though, so this is are only the first wave of names to break, but the principles roles have been filled and then some by those above. 2 Headed Shark Attack hits DVD on January 17th, 2012.
