Mother's Day Cast Expands By Two

In two more weeks director Darren Lynn Bousman will be gearing up and begin shooting his Mother's Day remake. He has been busy recently casting roles for the film and today STYD is reporting that Lyriq Bent (Saw 2, 3, 4) and Lisa Marcos (The Listener) have joined those ranks. That means they will be joining the ranks of Jaime King, Shawn Ashmore, Briana Evigan, Alexa Vega and Matt O'Leary.

The original "Mother's Day" revolved around three female friends who, while camping, run afoul of two brothers who engage in murder and rape to impress their deranged mother. The new version, written by Scott Milam, is being remolded as a psychological thriller in which the wicked family returns to the house where they grew up to terrorize the new owners and their guests.

King will play the woman of the house, a wife who has lost her child and is isolating herself from her husband. Ashmore and Evigan will play guests at the house. O'Leary ("CSI") is one of Mother's sons, joining the already cast Deborah Ann Woll as members of the family. All that is known of Lyriq's role is that he will play "Treshawn" and nothing is known about Marcos'.
