Chris Kattan And Helena Mattsson Join Cast Of Guns, Girls And Gambling

Guns, Girls and Gambling already promises to be one strange ride. It stars with the plot (Elvis impersonators, Indians, cowboys, a 6-foot-tall blonde assassin, a frat boy, a corrupt sheriff, and a prostitute are all going after a rare Native American Hopi warrior mask stolen at a casino) and continues with the cast, which includes a rare mix of Gary Oldman, Christian Slater, Dane Cook and Megan Park. Still with plenty of parts to cast, however, you can expect the expanded roster to only get stranger, and it starts right now.

THR's Heat Vision Blog reports that Chris Kattan and Helena Mattsson have joined the cast. In the film, the former SNL star will play one of the aforementioned Elvis impersonators, only with a special twist: he's gay. As for Mattsson, a Swedish model, she will get the special role of the blonde assassin who the article describes as "educated, ice cold and lethal."

From the casting of Cook and Kattan alone I don't see this film being very funny, but I don't anticipate watching Mattsson on screen for two hours will be any type of a struggle.
