It’ll turn out that Kyle’s the killer.
He’s really cute.
Leighton Meester aka “Blair Waldorf” for the role of “Nancy Thompson”. Make it happen Michael Bay and Platinum Dunes….
I really hope Kyle is one of the JLA members that show’s up in the season 8 finale of Smallville, Impulse is awesome!!!
BEAVER!!!! I haven’t seen THIC yet, but I’ve loved this kid ever since I saw him as Beaver on Veronica Mars. I may see this… It’ll probably suck though.
G always taught me a closed mouth doesn’t get fed. Is there any room for me in the Cast or film production?
I don’t really care about this movie but I will definitely see it now that Kyle will be in it…I love this kid. He was amazing on Cold Case, Veronica Mars, CSI:NY, Big Love….ect…
lol @ emma’s comment.
But great move by Platinum Dunes for casting this guy…he’s amazing!
OMG I freakin LOVE LOVE LOVE Kyle Gallner!!! I love him in everything that he’s in. He’s awesome. This kid can act his butt off!!! He beats all other young actors his age!!!

I’m gonna see the movie anyway but I’m excited to see kyle. he was amazing in the haunting in ct and his reality tv acting is great too so I hope he isn’t one of those kids that dies early on the movie. he better live the whole thing otherwise it’ll kinda make the movie bad. or they can kill all of them and make a 2nd movie thtd be good
