Strike to hit big franchise movie

Update! : Seems it’s neither comic book movie below, but a “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” prequel that Strike has been cast in. According to the Wrap, The Brit is playing young Leatherface in the movie from directors Julien Maury & Alexandre Bustillo.

British actor Sam Strike (“Eastenders”) has apparently landed a big-time US movie.

The actor let the news slip on Twitter, adding that he’s having to work out for the movie, and while early guessers had it as ‘Spider-Man’, Latino Review’s El Mayimbe says it’s either “Deadpool” or “X-Men : Apocalypse” since Sony has begun casting the former.
