Sean Lennon will score the indie vampire comedy “Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Undead,” which stars fellow celebrity spawn Jake Hoffman and Devon Aoki. Hoffman (son of Dustin) plays an unemployed actor who gets his big break directing a bizarre off-Broadway version of “Hamlet.” But there’s a catch: The adaptation is written by a Romanian (John Ventimiglia, best known as chef Artie Bucco on “The Sopranos”) who happens to be undead.
Aoki (daughter of Benihana steakhouse king Rocky Aoki) plays Hoffman’s love interest. Ralph Macchio will play a mob boss who ends up fighting vampires. Jeremy Sisto plays a bumbling detective investigating the mysterious deaths surrounding the production. The project marks the feature debut of writer-director Jordan Galland.
Lennon scored the fantasy musical he starred in and co-wrote, “Friendly Fire,” which featured appearances by Aoki, Asia Argento and Lindsay Lohan.
