Dennis Hopper To Star In Chinese FX Series

Shanghai-based Hweilai Studios has announced that Dennis Hopper is set to star in a new special effects heavy TV series, entitled FLATLAND. The EASY RIDER star has agreed to appear in 22 episodes as the mysterious villain Mr. Smith, who controls the show's strange universe. The show follows the adventures of three young adults trapped in a fourth-dimension where time and space crisscross. Hweilai is still looking for a distributor in the States. The studio is spending approximately US$1.75 million per episode. "Dennis Hopper was the only person we ever thought about for the role," said producer Al Ruddy to the HOLLYWOOD REPORTER. "There's a certain mystique to Dennis that is perfect for our show."
