Kate Bosworth is to star alongside James Woods and James Marsden in the forthcoming remake of Straw Dogs, being scripted and directed by the wonderful Rod Lurie.

Kate is set to play the wife of a Hollywood scriptwriter played by James Marsden, who returns to her hometown of Mississippi to find that life is not as idyllic and peaceful as she remembered - a role played by Susan George in Sam Peckinpahs 1971 original, while Marsden’s role was first placed by a fresh faced Dustin Hoffman.

 Alexander Skarsgard will play Bosworth’s character’s boyfriend, a former high school football hero, who sees her return as an opportunity to reclaim glory.

The remake is also set to star Dominic Purcell and Willa Holland - and will be released in 2010.

We can’t wait!
