Angel star set for Chainsaw sequel

UPDATE : The gang at Bloody Disgusting heard from a source at New Line who says there is no chance film in development.

According to a report on the Movie Tome website, former "Angel" star Amy Acker – she was ‘Fred’ before she died and came back as ‘Illyria’ – will be starring in the follow-up to the recent "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" remake.

Called "Texas Chainsaw Massacre : The Next Generation" – funnily enough that’s already been used as a title for one of the ‘Chainsaw’ sequels – it’s described by the site, like this : "Eight Teens are on a road trip to Mexico when they are involved in a fatal collision leaving one dead and stranding the rest.Upon their arrival at the Hewitt residence they discover Travis County has more secrets than it likes to talk about. The Rumours are true. and it’s too late to turn back because the chainsaw’s buzzin!".

Recent ‘Leatherface’ Andrew Bryniarski is playing Thomas Hewitt, David Dorfman is back as Jedidiah Hewitt and Heather Kafka returns as Henrietta Hewitt.

According to the site the film is slated for release July, 2005. According to a report on Whedonesque, Acker starts filming the movie next week.

Hopefully we’ll hear something official on this soon.
