It was revealed today that Willem Dafoe (Shadow of the Vampire, Daybreakers, Spider-Man) has joined John C. Reilly, Josh Hutcherson, Chris Kelly, Salma Hayek and Ken Watanabe in Cirque du Freak, according to IGN. Now filming in New Orleans, Universal Pictures' adaptation stars John C. Reilly who will play a vampire who drafts a 14-year old to serve as his assistant. The youth is turned into a half-vampire and becomes the catalyst in a battle between vampires and the rival Vampanese. The studio bought rights in 2005 to a series of 12 books. This is going to be long franchise if the film performs well.

He does look like he could scare the shit out of everybody if he had some good make-up.
