Joseph LoDuca is scoring the upcoming action comedy Freaky Deaky. The film directed by Charles Matthau is based on the novel by Elmore Leonard (Jackie Brown, Out of Sight). The movie starring Billy Burke, Christian Slater, Crispin Glover, Michael Jai White, Breanne Racano and Roger Bart centers on a LAPD bomb squad officer who stumbles upon a plot by two former hippie activists who plan to use their bomb-making skills to trick an alcoholic movie mogul into handing over millions of dollars. An adaptation of the Leonard’s crime novel has been in development for years with Quentin Tarantino and John Malkovich being attached to the project at one point. Freaky Deaky is currently in post-production and is expected to be released in 2012.
As previously announced, the composer also has the action adventure Soldiers of Fortune starring Sean Bean, Christian Slater, Dominic Monaghan, Ving Rhames, James Cromwell, Freddy Rodriguez and Colm Meaney coming up. The composer is also scoring the TNT drama Leverage (currently in its fourth season) and the Starz series Spartacus: Gods of the Arena, which will have its season 2 premiere early next year.
