Elias Koteas joins cast of LET ME IN

Yup. Wow. Cloverfield director, Matt Reeves' American adap. of the Swedish book/film Let the Right One In just got pretty darn interesting with the addition of Casey Jones himself, Mr. Elias Koteas playing the role of the policeman. Incidentally this was a pretty important character in the book, but not in Tomas Alfredson's film.

Production began yesterday on the Overture/Hammer co-production which will hit American theaters sometime next year. Richard Jenkins (The Visitor), Kodi Smit-McPhee (The Road) and Chloe Moretz (500 Days of Summer) also star.

Thanks to /film for posting the story.
