Director Eli Roth is filling out the cast of his Death Wish remake, with Deadline reporting that Vincent D’Onofrio (Daredevil) and Dean Norris (Breaking Bad) have signed on to star alongside Bruce Willis, who is portraying Paul Kersey, played by Charles Bronson in the 1974 original. D’Onofrio is set to play Kersey’s brother, while Norris will portray Detective Rains.
Death Wish follows Kersey, a man whose life is torn apart when thugs murder his wife and sexually assaults his daughter. Frustrated by the police’s failure to bring the criminals to justice, Kersey decides to take matters into his own hands and seeks revenge.
Production on Death Wish is set to get underway in September. The film is currently without a release date, but expect it in 2017.
