Hopper's son bows out of Craven horror

Max Thierot (Jumper) replaced Henry Lee Hopper in 25/8, a horror-thriller from Wes Craven. No creative differences here, just a case of mononucleosis that the actor, Dennis Hopper's son, couldn't shake off. Newbies Nick Lashaway, John Magaro and Paulina Olszynski also joined the cast, and Raul Esparza (Find Me Guilty) is in negotiations to play the film's serial killer.
