LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Adam Brody and J.K. Simmons have joined the cast of the dark comedy/horror feature "Jennifer's Body," Diablo Cody and Jason Reitman's follow-up collaboration to "Juno."
Cody's script centers on Jennifer (Megan Fox), a cheerleader possessed by a demon who starts feeding off the boys in a Minnesota farming town. Her bookish best friend (Amanda Seyfried) must take drastic measures to protect their town.
Brody will play Nikolai, a hot lead singer of an up-and-coming rock band with a penchant for evil. Simmons plays Mr. Wroblewski, a high school science teacher.
Karyn Kusama ("Girlfight") is directing the film for Fox Atomic, and Reitman is producing.
Brody worked with Reitman in "Thank You for Smoking." The actor is attached to play the Flash in Warner Bros.' still-in-development "Justice League" movie.
Simmons is quickly becoming a go-to player for Reitman. He appeared in "Thank You for Smoking" and "Juno," as the title character's father.
