Now that he's done filming the Disney Channel's Wizards of Waverly Place, star Jake T. Austin can move onto the next logical step: playing one of the greatest literary protagonists of the past 200 years. Austin will play Huck Finn to Super 8 newcomer Joel Courtney's Tom Sawyer in Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn, which will start shooting in -- wait for it -- Bulgaria this August. I suppose the material is ready for Disney alum treatment now that its pesky slurs have been eradicated. Should "Nickelodeon" also join the list of banned words? [Variety]
