Campbell To Star In 'Bruce Vs. Frankenstein'
'My Name is Bruce' sequel to lens this fall in Oregon
Bruce Campbell recently announced online that he will participate in "Bruce Vs. Frankenstein," a sequel to his 2007 film "My Name is Bruce."
Playing himself, Campbell mined laughs in "My Name is Bruce" as he fought a real monster in a small Oregon town after residents believe him to be Ash from the "Evil Dead" trilogy.
Campbell made the sequel announcement on Aint It Cool News, saying, "Hello everyone. Bruce Campbell here. This urgent message is short, because my keystrokes are monitored and I fear for my life. My partner at Dark Horse comics, Mike Richardson (normally a very rational and talented man), threatened to have his foot soldiers 'crush my spleen' if I did what I am about to do. But the fans deserve to know, so with great trepidation I officially announce 'Bruce Vs. Frankenstein,' the sequel to 'My Name is Bruce.'
"Principal photography begins this fall in Oregon. I'd like to live long enough to see the cameras roll, so please, for the love of God, do not tell anyone -- I can't risk this announcement getting back to Mike! Thank you."
No additional details on the project are available.
"My Name is Bruce" was directed by Campbell, based on a script by Mark Verheiden ("Battlestar Galactica," "Heroes").
