Elijah Wood, Among Others Join ‘Pawnshop Chronicles’

Mimran Schur Pictures has announced some casting news for it’s upcoming dark comedy Pawnshop Chronicles, including Elijah Wood, Matt Dillon, Brendan Frasier, and Vincent D’Onofrio. As if that weren’t enough stars from yesteryear they’ve already cast the likes of Paul Walker, Pell James, Thomas Jane, Lukas Haas, Chi McBride, Ashlee Simpson, Kevin Rankin, DJ Qualls, Michael Cudlitz and Norman Reedus, creating a powerhouse ensemble cast of late 90’s actors. More after the jump.This might not necessarily be a bad thing, since the film is being directed by Wayne Kramer, who also directed The Cooler, which was fantastic.

According to Mimran Schur’s website, “The film is a dark comedy about a man searching for his abducted wife, a couple of white supremacist meth heads and a sad sack Elvis impersonator all linked through items sold or found in a small Southern town’s local pawn shop.”

Production for Pawnshop Chronicles began in Baton Rouge LA, Monday.
