Filming is almost ready to begin on the much-anticipated, long-awaited Veronica Mars movie and writer/director/producer Rob Thomas let his Kickstarter backers (yes, I’m one) know that two more familiar faces have joined the cast. Officially back on board is Percy Daggs III as Wallace Fennel who Rob says was always a part of the Veronica Mars movie script. Also reuniting with Kristen Bell is Chris Lowell as Stosh ‘Piz’ Piznarski.
Thomas broke the casting news on a Saturday, saying, “In the old world of entertainment, you were never supposed to share important news over the weekend, when it was more difficult to get press coverage. But we’re not in the old world of entertainment: we’re in the new world, where 91,000 of you decided whether or not this movie would get made. Since it’s your movie too, there’s no reason to wait until Monday if I’ve got news, right?”
