Joss Whedon & Drew Goddard - "Cabin in the Woods" Movie - The shooting begins on March 9, 2009

Director Drew "Cloverfield" Goddard’s horror feature "Mordecai", aka "Cabin In The Woods" will start shooting in Vancouver March 9 for six weeks.

"Mordecai" is co-writen by Goddard and producer Joss Whedon.

"It’s genius, it’s funny, it’s got a harder and darker edge, but it’s also got classic Whedon qualities," said Goddard.

"It’ll rip your heart out and be heartfelt at the same time. It’s its own sub-genre, ’the cabin in the woods’ and this is sort of our take on it...fresh and new."

Cast includes actors Richard "Burn After Reading" Jenkins and Bradley "The West Wing" Whitford.

"It’s really just your basic typecasting," said Goddard.

"When you need two actors to run through the woods in low-cut nighties, you immediately think of Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford..."
