We have several bits of casting news to bring your way tonight. First up, Scoot McNairy (upcoming Cogan’s Trade) has joined the cast of director/star Ben Affleck’s Argo. In addition to Affleck, McNairy will also appear alongside Bryan Cranston, John Goodman, and Alan Arkin in the Warner Bros. pic that is based upon a 2007 article from Wired magazine. Chris Terrio adapted the Joshuah Bearman piece entitled “How the CIA Used a Fake Sci-Fi Flick to Rescue Americans from Tehran” which tells the rescue story of six U.S. diplomats in 1979. Variety scooped the news of McNairy’s casting, but doesn’t divulge any details regrading his character. The film is currently eyeing a 2012 release.

Next up, High School Musical‘s Corbin Bleu is taking his talents from an educational setting to a medical one.  The actor has signed on to star alongside Paz De La Huerta and 30 Rock‘s Katrina Bowden in Lionsgate’s horror flick Nurse 3D. According to Variety, Bleu will take on the role of Bowden’s boyfriend (poor guy), who gets caught up in (a.k.a. most likely murdered) the violent outbursts of De La Huerta’s character, Abby. In case you want to learn a little more about the film, this NSFW concept art should pretty much tell you all you need to know. Nurse 3D is also aiming for an unspecified 2012 release.

Lionsgate has released a first-look at actress Paz de la Huerta (Boardwalk Empire) in character for their upcoming pyscho-sexual 3D thriller (ie. porn) Nurse 3D. The “concept art” consists of de la Huerta naked, covered in blood, wearing a nurse’s hat.  Apparently the concept art will be used as “a style guide and character inspiration,” because style and character are the two things most pyscho-sexual 3D thrillers are lacking. Directed by Douglas Aarniokoski, the film centers on a dedicated nurse who “targets and punishes dishonest men” in her spare time.

Hit the jump to check out the NSFW concept art and press release.
