“Ghosts don’t move out.”
Not even if their new landlord is a former capo in a crime family.
Michael Imperioli, who saw the afterlife in his role as Christopher Moltisante on The Sopranos, and didn’t like it, is going to make a horror movie. The man who had his own fiancé whacked is going to be surrounded by dead souls in Foreclosure, a horror-thriller written and directed by Richard Ledes.
According to published reports Michael Imperioli will play a guy who goes to the house of a recently deceased relative with his son and father-in-law. The house is in poor neighborhood where most houses are now owned by the banks. Imperioli and company find something in the basement and horror ensues.
Leeds, who wrote and directed the films A Hole in One and The Caller, said "Michael Imperioli is a great actor with a deep understanding of filmmaking. Like a jazz ensemble, I can't imagine a better artist to join the two cats with whom I've had the privilege to work previously and who are back for Foreclosure: Wendell Pierce and Bill Raymond."
Michal Imperioli was last seen on HBO’s Girls, Showtime’s Californication, Detroit 1-8-7 and Life on Mars on TV. On the big screen Imperioli was in the thriller The Lovely Bones. He has already been cast in Spike Lee’s remake of Oldboy. Imperioli co-wrote the screenplay for Summer of Sam and wrote and directed The Hungry Ghosts.
Foreclosure will also feature Spencer List, Bill Raymond, Wendell Pierce, Matt Servittom Jeff Burchfield, Meital Dohan, Tristan Laurence Perez, William Stone Mahoney, David Costabile and Roger Robinson.
Foreclosure will be produced by Ged Dickersin, who made City Island. Virgil Films just bought the U.S. rights and plans to release it in the theaters and on VOD in the first-quarter of next year. The deal was announced at the Toronto Film Festival. Shooting starts next week in Queens.
