Mia Farrow Joins the Cast of The Omen 666
This week, reports across the web are stating that Mia Farrow has joined the cast of John Moore's 1976 remake of The Omen [Via: Fangoria].
Mia Farrow, who revealed that she’ll be appearing in the OMEN remake that rolls this month in Prague. Farrow joins Julia Stiles (with whom she’s currently co-starring Off-Broadway in the play FRAN’S BED) ... Farrow didn’t say which role she’ll portray in the film (sinister Mrs. Blaylock, perhaps?); the actress, of course, has experience playing opposite the spawn of Satan, having starred in ROSEMARY’S BABY nearly 30 years ago.Good stuff here folks, I'm always happy to learn about new scary projects. It is even more enjoyable when actors who are familiar to this genre are added to the casts -much like when I read horror icon Bill Moseley was to star in House of 1000 Corpses-. Recently we have seen a slue of remakes, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre -which I was pleased with- and The Amityville Horror -surprisingly pleased with-.
Do you feel that The Omen 666 will be a success, and if you had things your way, which horror classic remake would you pilot?
