Producers of the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot, are looking for a fresh new face to play iconic killer: Leatherface, and we’ve got all the details.
All New Leatherface
The production team of the film is hunting out a new face behind the Leatherface mask. Casting calls list the character as “Kenny”, a 60-year-old man who has a big build and wears “too tightly fitted church clothes”.
Illuminderdi shares that the new Leatherface is complex and doesn’t speak, but will use “guttural noises” as a mode of expression. They note that the only time he’s not out killing people, he’s busy watching TV.
Another character in the film is labeled Mrs Mc. She helps in calming down the temper tantrums of Kenny. She is described as 70-80 years old, with a natural and warm aura to her presence. The woman fosters abandoned children.
The story will focus on two sisters, Melody and Dreama. Melody is listed as 25 years old, and the older sister and breadwinner to young teenager Dreama, a wheelchair- bound amateur photographer. Melody forces Dreama to accompany her on a business trip to Texas, which will undoubtedly be a trip to remember.
The reboot is being directed by Andy & Ryan Tohill, and will be a remake of the original classic from 1974 by filmmaker Tobe Hooper.
