Kevin Bacon Joining Cast of ‘Super’

21 December 2009 12:15 PM, PST | The Flickcast | See recent The Flickcast news »

Not many people know director James Gunn by name, but most can pick his work out of a lineup. He’s had a pretty eclectic career behind the camera. He got his start working with the people such as Lloyd Kaufman and his Troma bunch.

From there, Gunn went on to write such films as Scooby-Doo, Dawn of the Dead, and most recently, Slither starring fan favorite Nathan Fillion. Gunn has always had an outspoken love of the superhero and comic book genre, especially with his superhero spoof film The Specials starring Rob Lowe back in 2000.

It looks like Gunn is at it again, with his newest project, Super, starring Rainn Wilson (The Office), as an everyday guy who is thrust into a extraordinary situation. The film is set to star Liv Tyler and Ellen Paige alongside Wilson.

It has now been announced that Kevin Bacon will be joining the cast, »
