Taking a cue from old time favorite hip-hopper LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes has been cast to star in the next Michael Myers installment, Halloween 8. LL had a role opposite Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween 7.
In addition to Busta, actress / supermodel Tyra Banks, Sean Patrick Thomas and Bianca Kajlich have been tapped to show in the Dimension Films picture as well. The notorious scary movie villain Michael Myers was beheaded in Halloween 7, while Halloween 8’s story line follows a group of teens that hold a Web chat on Halloween in honor of the serial killer. Regrettably for the teens, Myers decides to make a personal appearance.
The film is scheduled to start production in Vancouver, Canada on May 9th, with producers hoping to release the picture this October. For more information, log on to www.halloweenmovies.com
