Talan Torriero, a former Laguna Beach cast member, is appearing on two films set to be released next year. One is a drama based on a true story, while the other is a horror-comedy featuring well-known genre film actor Robert Englund.
The drama film, entitled Street, stars Vivica A. Fox (Kill Bill: Vol.1, Curb Your Enthusiasm), Rachel Miner (Californication), Toby Hemingway (Bones) and Laura Ramsey (The Days, Lords of Dogtown). Fox will play a woman who helps and mentors Lexi (Ramsey), a young girl with a troubled mother, a criminal father and a loving sister (Miner). Lexi runs away with her boyfriend, but when he starts abusing her, finds shelter and love with a drug-addicted street teen (Hemingway). The boy teaches her how to survive in a tough Portland, Oregon neighborhood.
