A quintet of performers have been announced for Adam Rifkin‘s upcoming comedy "Homo Erectus: A Caveman Comedy," and according to The Hollywood Reporter those actors are Ali Larter, David Carradine, Tom Arnold, Talia Shire and newcomer Hayes MacArthur.

"Writer, director and star Adam Rifkin already has boarded the project, which is being financed by Burnt Orange Prods. The film centers on Ishbo (Rifkin), a philosophical caveman who loves Fardart (Larter), but she only has eyes for Ishbo’s studly, dimwitted brother, Thudnik (MacArthur). Carradine and Shire will play Ishbo’s parents, while Arnold will play Rog, a gay caveman."

The indie comedy is set to start production early next year.
