After shocking audiences with the 1986s Henry: Portrait of a Serial KillerActor Michael Rooker and director John McNaughton set to reunite for vigilante thriller road rage,
Intended as the first in a series, the film will see Rooker playing another serial killer, although unlike Henry, it “kills only those who deserve to die – presenting a modern hero who is a hero who is a hero.” Bad man, good gone, protecting the innocent and punishing the criminal.”
“I wanted to work with Michael Rucker again, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, But we never got the chance,” McNaughton said (via Deadline). “Ultimately, I wrote a story that took the genre in a new direction. Michael Rucker as Stoney; He drives a truck … and kills people. Stoney is the ultimate serial killer … with a twist , and he is now going home after twenty years to settle a score from the past.”
“with road rageJohn McNaughton and Michael Rooker aim to once again create an aggressive and shocking film that will present at the cutting edge of art and style,” said Tim Perell, Producer of Process Media. Henry was ahead of its time, so road rage will be ahead of this time; Both are disturbing and exhilarating reflections of contemporary American culture. ,
As well as the franchise expected to film, Process Media is also working with INK Stories to develop a road rage video game, in which Navid Khonsari and Vasiliki Khonsari of INK Stories stated that: “We are working with John and Tim. Excited to be working with a genre-bending play with a feminist perspective on the American phenomenon of a serial killer.”
