David Anders and Kandyse McClure have been cast in the upcoming remake of horror movie Children Of The Corn.

The made-for-TV film, to be directed by original producer Donald P. Borchers from his own screenplay, will air on the Sci-Fi Channel next year.

The 1984 movie tells the story of a couple on a second honeymoon who end up in a seemingly deserted rural community, where they discover that the children have murdered their parents. It was based on a novella by horror writer Stephen King.

Shooting on the remake begins in Davenport, Iowa next month, reports Bloody Disgusting.

Anders plays Adam Monroe in US TV show Heroes. McClure is best known for her role as Lt. Anastasia Dualla in Battlestar Galactica.
