The Phantom Remake Finds Its Main Cast




Ryan Carnes (Desperate Housewives, Doctor Who) has been cast in title role of The Phantom and as his alter ego, Chris Walker, in the re-imagined version of the classic comic strip, which has been updated to the present day.

In the new movie Isabella Rossellini guest-stars as the villainous Lithia, the head of an experimental mind-control program. Also starring are Cameron Goodman as Chris Walker's love interest, Renny, and Sandrine Holt (24) as the Phantom's trusted advisor, Guran (all pictured below).

A favourite costumed hero for more than six decades, the Phantom (otherwise known as "The Ghost Who Walks") relies on his wits, physical strength and skill with weapons over superhuman powers.

Production began in Montreal under director Paolo Barzman (The Last Templar). The Phantom is slated to air in 2010 and is produced by Muse Entertainment. RHI will distribute internationally.

Directly from the sci-fi wire website back in April my friend. If you want to visit the page most of the info was taken from you can find it here: http://scifiwire.com/2009/04/sci-fi-casts-riverworld-p.php

Hope that clears's things up for you. This is an old post and hasn't been updated, so information may well have changed by now. Oh and "Kitt" is short for Chris in the Phantom history if you didn't know. Google it.
