Kat Dennings in Talks for "Defendor"

Kat Dennings is in theaters this weekend with Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist. Haven’t seen it yet, but will try and get out to it before the weekend’s over.

Now she’s in negotiations to join Woody Harrelson and Sandra Oh in “Defendor.” Written and directed by Peter Stebbings, the film centers on a regular guy (Harrelson) who believes he has a secret superhero identity. Dennings will play a teenager he befriends, and Oh will play his shrink.

Great cast, and it seems like an excellent follow-up for Dennings, too. Principal photography begins next month in Toronto.
