Thomas Dekker joins Kaboom

It's been a couple of years since we've seen anything from indie provocateur Gregg Araki, but now it looks like he's back with a vengeance - and has roped Thomas Dekker into Kaboom.

The new film, about which little is known aside from the fact that it follows the sexual awakening of a group of college students (sounds right up Araki's alley), is already shooting.

Dekker - best known as John Connor in the Sarah Connor Chronicles TV series - has been added to the cast alongside Roxane Mesquida, Kelly Lynch and Rooney Mara.


Lets hope Araki has a little more success with this one - his last film - stoner comedy Smiley Face (above) - premiered to mixed reviews at Sundance in 2007 and then largely flopped at the box office...
