Ventimiglia a Villain in GAME & CHAOS THEORY

While talking to Entertainment Weekly, the Heroes star has added his name to two upcoming thrillers in which he will be playing "bad guys". One is the UNTITLED GERARD BUTLER ACTION THRILLER (formerly called Game) while the other is a new thriller called CHAOS THEORY. Here's a sample of the interview where he passed the information along...

Are you just chillin' now while the strike is on, or are you working on something new?
I'm pretty busy. I'm doing two features before Christmas. One is called Game, and that's with Gerard Butler and Amber Valletta. It's written and directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, the same guys who did Pathology, the movie I have coming out in the spring.

Who do you play in Game?
A very interesting futuristic character that's not necessarily in control of himself.

"Not necessarily in control of himself"...
I think that's mysterious and cryptic enough.

You're used to answering questions like that.
Totally. And then I'm doing an independent film called Chaos Theory about a guy who leads a very organized life, and someone comes into that life and just sets a downward spiral in motion.

And you play?
I'm the bad guy. I'm not really a good guy in Game either.... Kind of two bad-guy roles for the holidays for me.
