A rumor has been going around that Elisabeth Shue was on board for Alexandre Aja's Piranha 3D remake. Today Moviehole was able to confirm that rumor by contacting some sources close to the project. Apparently we should be hearing some more casting here really soon.

Shue is playing the role of Sherrif Julie Forester, a take-charge authority figure in the community of Lake Victoria - where the action/ankle-biting takes place. She's the mother of Jake (one of the central characters in the film - the shy teenager who gets to prove his worth when human-eating fish threaten his family and friends), Laura and Zane.

Shooting is schedueled to begin soon in Arizona. Dimension plans to have it ready for release on March 10th, 2010.
