Gold Star Films and Momentum Productions have confirmed that they have added two-time Academy Award nominee John Malkovich (In the Line of Fire, Places in the Heart) to the ensemble cast of the comedy heist feature – Supercon. Malkovich joins a Supercon cast that currently includes Mike Epps (The Hangover, Uncle Buck), Maggie Grace (Taken, LOST), Russell Peters (Source Code, Chef), Clancy Brown (Warcraft, Hail, Caesar) and CariDee English (America’s Next Top Model).
Supercon, directed by Zak Knutson and scripted by Knutson and Andrew Sipes, follows a group of washed up television stars and comic book artists who make their living attending conventions. Down on their luck, the rag tag team hashes a plot to rob the convention and bring justice to a crooked promoter and an overbearing former TV icon.
Supercon is being produced by Gold Star Films’ Joey Tufaro and Todd Trosclair and Momentum Productions’ Susan Gorrell and Maria J. McDonald.
