EXCLUSIVE: Stephen Moyer has joined the cast of Devil’s Knot in a lead role. The True Blood star will play prosecutor John Fogelman in the film about the wrongfully convicted and imprisoned West Memphis 3. He joins Colin Firth, Reese Witherspoon Alessandro Nivola and more in the cast and will begin work on the Atom Eyogen-directed film immediately to fit in shooting around his schedule for the HBO vampire series. Devil’s Knot tells the true story of how, despite no psychical evidence, teens Jason Baldwin, Damien Echols and Jessie Misskelley were found guilty and jailed for a triple homicide in 1993. They were finally released last year. The movie is based on the 2003 book Devil’s Knot: The True Story Of The West Memphis Three by investigative reporter Mara Leveritt. Moyer is repped by WME and managed by Lubor Roklin Entertainment.

Congrats, matey!
I don’t get it with this guy. Who thinks he’s good?
I’ve come to appreciate Moyer a great deal more over the years on TB. He’s a very good actor and terrific straight mant to Eric/Alex. With just one look he makes the scene even funnier! Congrats to him!
Good for him!
The guy has talent and he’s been tied to a stack of pretty lame projects in his TB off season over the last 5 years. Now that he’s got his shot in a high-end project, here’s hoping he sticks the landing.
Stephen should be cast in the role of Roland Deschain in the upcoming Dark Tower films.
No. Roland Deschain must be played by an actor who is several more REAL years older than Stephen Moyer.
This seems like it will be a good movie (certainly the real life story is horrifically compelling). But are they just hiring everyone and anyone who has, or can pull off, a southern accent?
