Exclusive: Shoot underway in South Africa on Chris Smith thriller.
Emory Cohen (The Place Beyond the Pines, The Gambler) has joined Tye Sheridan (Mud, Joe) and Bel Powley (The Diary of A Teenage Girl) in the cast of writer-director Chris Smith’s (Get Santa) thriller Detour, which is now underway in South Africa.
Supporting cast on the film includes True Blood’s Stephen Moyer and newcomer Jared Abrahamson (Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days).
Sheridan will star as law student and all round good guy Harper who suspects his stepdad Vincent (Moyer) of causing the car crash that landed his mother in a coma.
Drowning his sorrows in a seedy La whisky bar, Harper ends up drinking with Johnny Ray (Cohen), a tough redneck who offers to “take care” of Vincent for a cool $20,000. Powley will play Ray’s beautiful but distant girlfriend.
Producers are Julie Baines and Jason Newmark with financing from Head Gear Films...

Following The Mindy Project and others, the premiere episode of new CBS sitcom We Are Men is now available to watch online on CBS.com and the CBS app.
The show, starring Tony Shalhoub, Kal Penn and Chris Smith, centers around four single guys living in a short-term apartment complex who unexpectedly find camaraderie over their many missteps in love. “It’s not just four guys going out,” executive producer Rob Greenberg recently told EW. “It’s four guys with a lot of history, so the ex-wives and the kids and their own families will be a big part of this show.
