Circus - Water for Elephants: Blackie,Wyatt and a Grocer, three new cast members added

The original title of the book written by Sara Gruen is “Water for Elephants” however there is some debate that it might get changed to “Circus” for the film. Certainly the title “Circus” is not very original; I personally feel that leaving the title as it is in the book is the right way forward. Time will tell and nearer the time of filming we should know something definite about what has been decided.

I’m taking this blog very seriously and unless I find confirmation of something, I am not posting. I want this to be for those who really love the story and hopefully the film, so there will be no “hot news” no speculation and it will be dedicated 100% to Water for Elephants. However there will be spoilers so if you have not read the book and don’t want spoilers, then please don’t read this blog.

Blackie,Wyatt and a Grocer, three new cast members added

David Dustin Kenyon as Wyatt - Benzini Core Roustabout (uncredited)

This was re- twittered by Hibbit ( Frances Lawrence) earlier today.

@Hibbits I did my fitting for a "Water for Elephants" circus roustabout. Awsome costumes.This is gonna be FUN..Thank You, David D. Kenyon.

Scott MacDonald as Blackie (uncredited) Blackie is a nasty piece of work and one of the security men, he’s always very willing to red-light anyone when needed.

Ivo Nandi ... Grocer (uncredited) I am intrigued by this one, there is no grocer in the script, unless he has been added into a new and more recent script. So who knows what part a grocer will play in the movie?
