With co-writer and co-star Jay Baruchel taking the director’s chair for the Goon sequel, the further misadventures of Seann William Scott’s Doug “The Thug” Glatt is busy assembling its cast. First among the new faces for the follow-up is Elisa Cuthbert{
The sequel – known as** Goon: Last Of The Enforcers** – finds Glatt and his team, the Halifax Highlanders back on the ice with a group of new players during a professional strike. Cuthbert will be the showy sister of Alison Pill’s Eva, with Liev Schreiber also back as rival hockey player Ross Rhea.
Baruchel is set to start calling the shots on June 21 in Toronto, with Scott busy getting back in fighting shape for the film. Cuthbert, who may still be best known as the cougar-adjacent Kim Bauer in 24, worked alongside Scott on Courteney Cox’s film directing debut, Just Before I Go. She most recently appeared in short-lived US TV sitcom One Big Happy.
