The Hollywood Reporter divulges the all-new cast list for the upcoming "Flicka." Based on the Mary O’Hara novel "My Friend Flicka" (which was turned into a popular 1943 film), the movie tells the tale of a modern young cowgirl and the wild horse she grows to love. Alison Lohman ("Matchstick Men"), Tim McGraw ("Friday Night Lights"), and Ryan Kwanten ("Summerland") were already on board, and they’ll be joined by new castmates Maria Bello ("The Cooler"), Dallas Roberts ("Winter Passing"), and Danny Pino (TV’s "Cold Case").Screenwriting team Larry Konner and Mark Rosenthal ("Mona Lisa Smile," "Planet of the Apes") are adapting the classic novel, while Michael Mayer ("A Home at the End of the World") will be in the director’s chair.
