Moviehole reported yesterday that Ian Somerhalder, who played Boone on ABC's hit show Lost, will next star in Nick Mastandrea's horror film The Breed, coming to theaters in 2006.

Somerhalder will have a lead role in the Wes Craven-produced film, which starts shooting in South Africa later this week. He'll play one of two distinctly different brothers who wind up on a deserted island only to do battle with evil, but strangely-smart dogs.

Director Mastandrea was Craven's first assistant director on Cursed, Wes Craven's New Nightmare and the "Scream" series.

Columnists Marilyn Beck and Stacey Jenel Smith confirmed the above by talking to Somerhalder about the role. "It's a spooky movie. And I'm going to be out of the country for a long time," the actor said.

Somerhalder also recently signed a holding deal with Touchstone/ABC for a series of his own. All he knows about the latter is he wants it to be "absolutely" different from Lost. He notes, "You can't top the show. The best you can do is hope to parallel it."

Michelle Rodriguez, Taryn Manning, Oliver Hudson, Hill Harper and Eric Lively will star in the independent horror film The Breed. First Look Media and DEJ Productions have acquired worldwide rights, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The Breed follows five young friends who vacation on a peaceful deserted island only to discover that the canines they befriend are genetically altered and possess a frighteningly high level of intelligence -- with an appetite to match.

Lost star Ian Somerhalder had been announced to star in the film but since has dropped out.

Wes Craven is executive producing. His longtime collaborator Nick Mastandrea is making his directorial debut on the project. The film begins shooting on Monday in South Africa.

The end of the movie freaked me out.
