You know, it isn’t that big a stretch for me to imagine Sigourney Weaver as a vampire. I mean, just look at her. I’m already buying that she’s immortal. If she is, then art will be imitating life as she’s just signed on to Amy heckerling’s latest, Vamps. The romantic horror-comedy focuses on beautiful young vampires (Alicia Silverstone and Krysten
Ritter) who are living the good nightlife in New York until love enters
the picture and each has to make a choice that will jeopardize their
immortality. The UTA-repped Weaver, coming off of Avatar, will play Ciccerus, the
bloodthirsty vampire who turned the two ladies into creatures of the
night.
The project will reunite Silverstone with Heckerling for the first time since 1995’s Clueless. The project is looking to begin shooting in late April. Meanwhile, Weaver has Crazy on the Outside with Ray Liotta and Tim Allen upcoming, as well as several other projects, including Ghostbusters III on the horizon.
