It was announced a few weeks back that Lauren German, Heather Matarazzo and Bijou Phillips would join Jay Hernandez in Lionsgate's hotly anticipated sequel to Hostel, which is now titled Hostel: Part II. Today a whole bunch of final casting news was revealed and can be found inside. This time, the story follows three women who, while studying abroad for the summer, learn the grim truth behind the Slovakian hostel and its international counterparts. German would play a wealthy girl trying to figure out her next step in life, Phillips would be her best friend and Matarazzo will be a tag-along.
Set to roll within the next week or so back in the Czech Republic (where the original lensed), the follow-up focuses this time on a trio of female travelers who run afoul of the underground torture network. Said girls will be played by TEXAS CHAINSAW remake hitchhiker Lauren German (pictured), Bijou (VENOM) Phillips and Heather (SCREAM 3) Matarazzo, with Jay Hernandez returning as Paxton (who may or may not make it to the end of his second adventure). Also in the HOSTEL: PART II cast are Finnish model-turned-actress Vera Jordanova (check out her MySpace page here), THE PRODUCERS’ Roger Bart and Richard (STARSHIP TROOPERS 2) Burgi; Eli Roth writes and directs, of course.
