NEW MUTANTS<\/a> director Josh Boone<\/strong> took to instagram<\/a> to announce Peter Deming<\/strong> (Twin Peaks, Drag Me to Hell, Evil Dead II) as director of photography for the X-Men spin-off.<\/p>\n

Deming will provide unique horror-tinged visuals, which is a perfect match for the film’s scary antagonist, Demon Bear<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Omega Underground<\/a> reports that a potential casting call for the villain found its way online from Central Casting (via Project Casting<\/a>). They are “looking for men who are 6\u20199\u2033 to 7\u20194\u2033 who are very thin and athletic. You must be able to chase kids down a hall. Must be okay with prosthetics and make up. Talents will work as a paid principal actor. Filming will be in Boston, Massachusetts from July 13th through July 21st.”<\/p>\n

Actors involved include Anya Taylor-Joy as dimension-hopper Magik<\/a> and Maisie Williams as the transforming Wolfsbane<\/a>, among others.<\/p>\n

Production begins next month in Boston and runs through the Summer for a April “Friday the 13th” 2018 theatrical release.<\/p>\n

Thanks to @XMenSaga<\/a> and Omega Underground<\/a> for the heads up!<\/p>\n
