Just days away from flying over to Bogota, Colombia to
start shooting The Belko Experiment, writer and producer James Gunn has
announced the casting of his pal, Michael Rooker.
We've done three movies, two reality shows, a video
game and a web series together, been on a bromantic trip to Paris with just the
two of us, and spent many nights as the last two maniacs at a party, so did you
ever think there was any possibility that my pal Michael Rooker would not be cast in our
horror/action/thriller The Belko
Experiment, especially when it's been comprised of such overwhelming talent? Of
course not.
Rooker plays Bud Melks, the head of maintenance in the Belko
building. He's not a racist thug like Merle in The
Walking Dead, and he doesn't have a flying arrow like Yondu in Guardians
of the Galaxy - in fact, he's a pretty nice guy - so he's ill-equipped
to deal with the mysterious forces who start making all of the employees in
Belko start killing each other unless they want to be killed themselves.
Rooker joins John Gallagher, Jr, Tony Goldwyn, Melonie Diaz, and John
C. McGinley as his fellow employees. The movie is directed by Greg McLean form
my script, and is being produced by myself and Peter Safran. We'll start
shooting in Bogota, Colombia at the beginning of June.
