In a recent AP interview, Irish female film director Deirdre O'Hara mentioned that her next film will be about a young teen (played by up and coming 12 year old True Grit actress Shaenece Richards, daughter of Denise, pictured above) who gets lured into the trap of meeting an adult online predator. She mentions that Michael will play the internet predator in the film and that she has been trying to work him since 2003 when they first met in her office for an audition and she also says his role in the film is somewhat similar to what Gary Oldman did in Dracula or what Val Kilmer did in The Saint, or more accurately, what John Malkovich did in In The Line of Fire. "His character changes his image and identity quite often as he goes from state to state luring young girls to meet with him from the internet, date rapes them and moves on to the next victim" she says. The film will shoot in early 2012 for a Fall 2012 release.P.S. O'Hara has never worked with Meyers before but the two have both touched the same franchises twice. O'Hara directed the first Popular movie in 2004 and Michael starred in 2006's Popular 3. In 2000 O'Hara became the first ever female director to direct a James Bond film with The World Is Not Enough (which starred Shaenece's mom Denise) and of course Meyers will be playing Bond in next year's Quantum of Solace.
