Danielle Harris Lands Starring Role in ‘Hatchet 2’!
Bloody Disgusting has learned that beautiful scream queen Danielle Harris (Halloween, Stake Land) has officially been cast as the new “Marybeth” in Adam Green’s Hatchet 2, which begins lensing early next year. “She’s the new Marybeth,” Green tells Bloody Disgusting. “Everything that this movie is trying to be is to get better…case in point is that it brings fans what they want and is going to make ‘Hatchet 2’ even better. [There’s] a new[ly designed] Victor Crowley and the whole cast is f*cking amazing! To have another icon as a leading role is enormous.” The sequel follows Harris as Marybeth as she escapes from the clutches of Victor Crowley, learns the truth about his curse, and heads back into the haunted New Orleans swamp to seek revenge for her family and kill Crowley once and for all… Read on for a bit more from Green about Victor Crowley’s new look.
“Make-up tests on Kane [Hodder] begin in about 10 days,” Green says about the new Victory Crowley. “It’s definitely modified, but looks the same just much more realistic and less rubber suit looking. It’s a much more complicated appliance job. He’s down for it though.”
Hodder is an expert when it comes to make-up appliance as he’s taken on the role of Jason Voorhees in four Friday the 13th films.
Starring alongside Kane Hodder and Danielle Harris are Tony Todd, R.A. Mihailoff and John Carl Buechler.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
