Thomas Haden Church has joined Matthew McConaughey and Emile Hirsch in William Friedkin's dark comedy Killer Joe.  As we previously reported, the film "centers on a brother (Hirsch) and sister combo who plot the death of their mother for the insurance money and hire “Killer Joe” Cooper, a cop and contract killer (McConaughey) to do the deed."  Variety doesn't mention what role Church will play in the film.

Church was most recently seen in the comedy Easy A.  After he shoots Killer Joe, Church will move on to the Cameron Crowe flick We Bought a Zoo starring Matt Damon (and possibly Amy Adams).
