Octavia Spencer Adds ‘Baggage Claim’; McDermott Thrown In ‘Freezer’; Terrence Howard Has ‘A Girl And A Gun’; Goyo Looks To ‘Dark Skies’
Octavia Spencer, best known for her Oscar-winning performance in The Help, has been cast in David E. Talbert’s upcoming comedy Baggage Claim. Spencer will be featured alongside Paula Patton and Derek Luke in the Fox Searchlight project. The film is based on Talbert’s best-selling novel about a flight attendant seeking love in the skies in a 30-day, 30,000-mile search for the perfect man. Spencer has not slowed since her 2011 Oscar win. She will also be appearing in two soon to be released films including an untitled feature length directed by Diablo Cody, as well as in Snowpiercer, a thriller from director Joon-ho Bong.
Spencer is not the only one with her head in the sky; Dakota Goyo has just been cast in the thriller Dark Skies, which will be directed by Scott Stewart. Goyo will play a young boy who is being targeted for abduction by an alien disguised as a human.
