Movie by

Scott Eastwood, the youngest son of actor/director Clint Eastwood, has joined the cast of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D, Deadline reports. The film will be directed by John Luessenhop (Takers) and is set to take place after Tobe Hooper's original 1974 horror classic. The script was penned by Adam Marcus and Debra Sullivan, and polished by Kirsten Elms and Luessenhop. 

Massacre 3D is being produced by Carl Mazzocone and exec produced by Avi Lerner and Mark Burg. The goal is for the film to help launch a new fright franchise featuring the iconic, chainsaw-loving villain Leatherface and his oddball family. Filming begins this week in Shreveport, Louisiana, to meet it's Oct. 5, 2012 scheduled release date. 

Eastwood recently completed the Charles Burmeister-directed Epic, the Jack Heller-directed Enter Nowhereand the Lawrence Roeck-directed Carmel. He has also starring roles in films directed by his father, including Invictus, Gran Torinoand Flags of Our Fathers. This sounds like a good film for Eastwood to breakout in mainstream wise without the help of his father.
