Rooster Teeth has announced the addition of several cast members to its third feature film, horror comedy Blood Fest — which the Austin-based production company unveiled earlier this week.
Seychelle Gabriel (The Last Airbender) will play the female lead in the film, which is about a horror movie festival creator with a diabolical agenda. Also appearing in Blood Fest are: Zachary Levi (Chuck), who will play himself in a cameo; Chris Doubek (Boyhood); and newcomer Rebecca Wagner. The lead male role in the film, Robbie Kay (Heroes: Reborn), will play Gabriel’s best friend — the two of whom are pulled into the adventure of a lifetime alongside the hapless Jacob Batalon (pictured below), of Spider Man: Homecoming fame.
“I’ve been a fan of Seychelle Gabriel for years,” said Blood Fest writer and director Owen Egerton. “She brings this cool strength and humor to her character. Seychelle is not playing a damsel in distress. She’s playing a damsel ready to pick up a machete and kick some ass.”
Other previously announced cast members include Rooster Teeth’s Barbara Dunkelman (RWBY), Nick Rutherford (SNL), and Tate Donovan (The Man In The High Castle).
A release date and distribution details for Blood Fest have not yet been announced, but the film will appear on FIRST, Rooster Teeth’s $5 monthly SVOD service, the company said.
