John Cusack, Vanessa Hudgens, Nicolas Cage, and 50 Cent are all headed to Alaska for ‘Frozen Ground’

50 Cent has landed a significant role in the upcoming movie Frozen Ground.

The movie is based on real life serial killer Robert Hansen, aka the “Butcher Baker”, who, between 1980-1983, kidnapped and raped at least 21 women before flying them out to a remote Alaskan location, where he would release them to hunt and kill them.

Initially it was announced that 50 would serve as one of the executive producers of the film, which is being produced by Emmett/Furla Films, in addition to playing a pimp in the movie.

Frozen Ground will also star John Cusack as Hansen, Vanessa Hudgens as 17-year old would-be victim Cindy Paulson who escaped from the killer, and Nicolas Cage as an Alaska State Trooper who tracks Hansen down with Paulson’s help.

The film’s casting director is also looking for 400 and 600 extras to appear in the movie, as well as 45 local actors for minor speaking roles. They are especially on the lookout for people who look like law enforcement officers, and hope state troopers and local police officers respond to the call for auditions.

Anyone interested in appearing in the film can email an acting resume and headshot to frozengroundcasting@gmail.com. Write “actress” or “actor” in the subject line, or “extra” if you don’t want to audition for a speaking role.

Shooting for the film starts October 10 in Anchorage with a $27 million budget.

  4. I would love to be an actor in this movie. I am an FBI, Full Blooded Inupiaq! (Alaskan Native) who lives in a small remote village far north of Anchorage. I do a lot of impressions, and know how to read and write proficiently. Acting is an easy job, I don’t see how people can make mistakes.

  10. I would like to try out for a minor role in this film ,if you could utilize me. For what it’s worth, I was voted Best Actor in High School. I have a gift of being able to speak with many different accents, and can speak at least a few words in many different languages in the appropriate accent. I know a few languages well enough to converse a little bit. These would include Russian, German, and Greek, for instance. Having been an athlete in my youth, iam fairly well travelled, and have worked as a tradesman all my adult life, so I have alot of life experience to draw upon. Thank you for your consideration.

  14. FYI: My cousin, Lisa Futrell was one of Hanson’s victims. Her remains were found and identified by the number on a breast implant that did not rupture when she was shot, nor when she lay dead. That number lead the authorities in learning who she was. Lisa’s sister was the one to lead authorities to the doctor who identified her by the breast implant number.
