The original weapons were radically different

In a relatively short period of time, Zac Kraigger emphasized as one of the most important voices in modern terror. Its 2022 The first individual “Barbarian” guidance has become an unexpected successThat put it on the map. Now, his follow -up, the “weapons” that won the approval of critics, became a great success, and a great success in Warner Bruce. As it turned out, he actually had to start from scratch with a completely different band before starting filming.

The “weapons” are carried out in a small town where each one child disappears mysteriously on the same night at the same time at the same time. Society must ask who – or what – behind their disappearance. originally, Pedro Pascal (Mandalian “) was thrown in the leadership role, but he was forced to leak due to scheduling Issues that occurred due to the Guild Guild Actor’s strike in 2023. Unfortunately, the departure of Pascal was just the beginning, as everything was beaten.

Crape confirmed to Entertainment weekly This was just one part of a completely different team that had to change completely with the development of things. The previous group, such as Brian Terry Henry, included (“Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire”) and Renate Reinsve (“The Sweetest Person in the World”), with Tom Burke (“Black Bag”) also in previous casting reports.

The only person who made it through two rounds of casting? Austin Abrams (“Aga”). “I was hung with me. This is, shouted there,” said Craigger. For his part, Abrams was keen to stick to his role. This is what he said on this topic:

“I managed to contact you, and then it turned out that he was doing something. I thought I was suitable for that, maybe.

Cregger ended with the transformation of Josh Brolin (“” No Country for the Elderly Men “,” Deadpool 2 “) to fill the shoes that Pascal left behind. Proline Artcher, a man with sadness, plays after his son’s disappearance. He starred in front of Julia Garner, “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”) as the teacher, the teacher whose students all disappeared. Although Cregger did not say this directly, it is assumed that Ronals played the role of Garner.

It is not clear that Henry was playing, although the school principal is Marcus, as he was eventually filmed by Benedict Wong (“Dr. String”), it seems to be a reasonable bet. Instead, it is easy to imagine Henry plays the role of Paul, the policeman who ended up by Aldeen Ehrenreich (“Solo: A Star Wars Story”). Either way, although it is significantly different from such sects on paper, they are both A-List. This talks about volumes about Cregger’s credibility that was built in the wake of “barbarian”, in addition to working as a glowing approval of The “Arms” scenario (which generated a huge war in Hollywood Before landing at Warner Bruce).

In the end, everything was working well. The “weapons” was a huge blow to the box office from the gateIn addition to being one of the best horror films that have been reviewed for 2025 so far. Meanwhile, Cregger is now strengthening its place in Hollywood and already has already restarted “Resident Evil” on the deck. Suffice it to say, it should not have a problem securing a great team for that. It is interesting that it is already scheduled to meet with Abrams for this film, and there is no doubt in part of it because the latter is suspended during the wild riding on “weapons”.

“Weapons” in theaters are now.
