Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon and Cloverfield writer Drew Goddard have just announced casting for their interesting sounding horror/thriller Cabin In The Woods. The brilliant Bradley Whitford (The West Wing, Studio 60) and Richard Jenkins (Six Feet Under, The Visitor) are in advanced negotiations to take leading roles in the covert production. Goddard and Whedon told the Hollywood Reporter: "It's really just your basic typecasting: When you need two actors to run through the woods in low-cut nighties, you immediately think of Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford." Then adding "They're the first proof that though 'The Cabin in the Woods' is a classic horror film, it isn't one you've seen before." Hey, I was sold at Bradley Whitford. Goodard is directing, while both he and Whedon wrote the script.
