Back in June we were the first to reveal that Firefly actor Alan Tudyk was following his star turn in Tucker and Dale vs. Evil with the lead in zombie comedy First Platoon. Well sadly we have bad news for Tudyk fans…
First Earth Films have been in touch to let us know that Scott Gibson (Haldane in the Spielberg/Hanks epic The Pacific), will be taking over the role of ‘Rock Brannigan’ – the leader of a motley team of zombie fighters in the post-apocalyptic desert southwest – replacing Alan Tudyk. From the press release:
Gibson, a well-respected actor whose previous credits include Lucky Number Slevin as well as small parts in a number of other films (including a bit in George Romero’s zombie film Diary of the Dead), starred recently as Capt. Andrew Haldane in three episodes of the Steven Spielberg – Tom Hanks project The Pacific to excellent critical reviews.
