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.
Ryder will play Kuklinski's wife. She appeared earlier this
year in The Dilemma and will soon re-team with director Tim Burton, providing a
voice in his stop-motion feature, Frankenweenie.
