Billy Bob Thornton and Eva Longoria have joined the cast of The Baytown Disco. Serinda Swan, Clayne Crawford, Thomas Sangster and Meagan Good will co-star in the film which starts shooting in Louisiana on May 2nd.
Barry Battles will helm The Baytown Disco, based on a script he co-wrote with Griffin Hood (which was listed on 2009’s “Black List” of Hollywood’s top unproduced projects), about the foibles of three redneck brothers who get more than they bargained for after agreeing to help a woman get her son back from his seemingly-abusive father.
There’s no news on who any of the actors are playing, but it should give Billy Bob something to do while he puts together the financing for the movie he wants to direct, Jayne Mansfield’s Car.
