Jackie Earle Haley and WALKING DEAD Actor Ross Marquand Set to Star in Dan Roebuck's Crime Thriller TUESDAY'S FLU
Jackie Earle Haley (Watchmen, Little Children) and The Walking Dead actor Ross Marquand are set to star in the upcoming crime thriller project Tuesday’s Flu. The movie will be directed by Daniel Roebuck (The Munsters), who also stars in the film, which was written by Stephen and Brian Parri.
The title of the film, Tuesday’s Flu, is the term that bookies use when gamblers conveniently disappear after the weekend’s losses. It tells the story of Jason McCutchen (Marquand), “a compulsive gambler who finds himself heavily in debt to an unsympathetic bookie. Lester Smalls (Haley) offers him a way out — one last shot — with the downside being that Jason could lose his son in the gamble.”
That sounds like my kind of movie! I enjoy movies like this that are set in the world of gambling, and this one has got some great talent attached to it, so I’m looking forward to seeing how it turns out.
The film is heading into production next month on the East Coast.
