- JOHNNY FLAME COOLS DOWN INTO ICE
 |
| Chris Evans as Steve Rogers in Avengers |
Chris Evans (Fantastic Four & Captain America) is set to replace the previously announced James
Franco in The Iceman, Deadline reports. He'll appear opposite Michael Shannon
in the true serial killer tale.
Ariel Vromen (Danika, Rx) is directing from a screenplay he
co-wrote with Morgan Land (Rx), based on the book "The Iceman: The True
Story of a Cold-Blooded Killer" by Anthony Bruno and on interview footage
from the documentary "The Iceman Tapes: Conversations with a Killer"
by Jim Thebaut. The film is officially described as follows:
"The Iceman" is the electrifying true story of
Richard Kuklinski (Shannon), a notorious mob contract killer and loving family
man. He earned his nickname by freezing the bodies of his victims, disguising
the time of death, and throwing police off-track. He was a man who used his
tendencies toward violence and detachment from consequence to create an idyllic
family life. His family and neighbors believed he was an average businessman,
having no idea about his deadly alternate life. Kuklinski killed over one
hundred people during his life. He never felt remorse for anything he had done,
except hurting his family.
