The cast of the remake of the 1989 adaptation of Stephen King's Pet Sematary continues to take shape, as Amy Seimetz (Alien: Covenant) signs on as the film's female lead, starring opposite Jason Clarke...
The latest adaptation of Stephen King’s Pet Sematary is set to hit theaters next year with Dennis Widmyer and Kevin Kolsch (Starry Eyes) at the helm, and the cast of the remake continues to grow, as it finds an actor to bring one of its main characters to life.
The most recent addition, according to Deadline, is Amy Seimetz, (Alien: Covenant) who will be joining Jason Clarke (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) and John Lithgow (The Crown), as the female lead.
Seimetz will be portraying Rachel Creed, the wife of Jason Clarke’s Louis Creed, and the mother of the child Gage, who becomes tragically affected by the pet graveyard. Though, how closely the film and Seimetz's role follows King's novel or the previous adaptation remains to be seen.
While the list of cast members is currently a small one, more casting announcements for the movie are sure to come out as it approaches its April 5, 2019 release date and the start of production.
