Michele Morrone (365 Days), Franco Nero (Django), and Ana Golja have joined Mike Tyson, Bella Thorne, and James Franco in the cast of Italian superhero movie Bunny-Man.
The Motus Studios is selling the project at the American Film Market with Andrea Iervolino (Ferrari) producing. We’re told the filmmaker will be the character of Bunny-Man himself, whose real identity is a closely guarded secret.
Filming is due to get underway next week in Italy on the project, much of which will shoot in a virtual set. Tyson, who is taking part in a boxing match against Jake Paul in ten days, has already completed his part in the film, which is being set up as the first installment in a trilogy.
The plot of Bunny-Man is said to involve an anonymous multimillionaire superhero who strikes against evil forces while wearing a rabbit mask. He is driven by the desire to avenge his sister who committed suicide after being attacked, images of which wound up on the internet.
