EXCLUSIVE: Academy Award nominee Jackie Earle Haley (Little Children) and longtime The Walking Dead cast member Ross Marquand have signed on to star alongside Daniel Roebuck (Rob Zombie’s The Munsters) in the crime thriller Tuesday’s Flu, which Roebuck is directing from a script by brothers Stephen and Brian Parri. ‘Tuesday’s Flu’ is the term that bookies use when gamblers conveniently disappear after the weekend’s losses.
The film heading into production next month on the East Coast tells the story of Jason McCutchen (Marquand), a compulsive gambler who finds himself heavily in debt to an unsympathetic bookie.
Lester Smalls (Haley) offers him a way out — one last shot — with the downside being that Jason could lose his son in the gamble.
Drewlin Productions is producing in association with CMN, LLC and Magic Bean Entertainment. Haley landed his Oscar nom for his supporting turn in Tár helmer Todd Field’s 2006 romantic drama Little Children, and is otherwise best known for turns as Freddy Krueger in 2010’s A Nightmare on Elm Street, and as Rorschach in Zack Snyder’s Watchmen.
