Jessica Chastain And Others Join Kathryn Bigelow's Bin Laden Film

Deadline reports that three more actors are in talks to join Kathryn Bigelow's Bin Laden film from Hurt Locker writer Mark Boal. The actors include Jessica Chastain (The Help, The Debt, Tree of Life), Mark Strong (RockNRolla, Body of Lies, Sherlock Holmes) and Edgar Ramirez (Domino, Che, Wrath of The Titans). It's an impressive addition considering they'll be joining Jason Clarke (Public Enemies, Wettest County), Joel Edgerton (Animal Kingdom, Warrior) and Chris Prat (Moneyball). It will focus on the group of Navy Seals that ultimately killed Bin Laden. Sony has set the untitled film for a December 9th 2012 release date.

Edgar Ramirez Now Front-Runner To Play Khan In Star Trek 2

ShowBlitz now reports that Spanish actor Edgar Ramirez is now the front-runner for the villain role in Star Trek 2. Ramirez is gathering some steam after his profile was raised after the epic Carlos which he was the lead. He's also no stranger to action taking parts in films like Tony Scott's Domino and the upcoming Wrath of The Titans. Benicio Del Toro had been wanted for the part but couldn't agree on the payment side of things. Also in the mix for the role is Spanish actor Jordi Molla best known as the villainous Cuban drug lord in Bad Boys 2. This casting trend of Spanish speaking actors for the villain is again confirming previous reports that the villain is indeed Khan.

FIRST LOOK: Wrath of The Titans

Actors Confirmed For Wrath of The Titans

ComingSoon received the Wrath of The Titans press release which again confirms returning cast members Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes and Queen Andromeda now played by Rosamund Pike. Not previously mentioned is Danny Huston who is reprising the role of Poseidon. Along with new additions Edgar Ramirez as Ares, Tobey Kebbell as Argenor and Bill Nighy as Hephaestus the blacksmith to the gods. Oddly enough Gemma Arterton who ended up the love interest in the first film doesn't appear as in the cast. Her role could possibly be cut or even in the process of being re-cast.

Ramirez, Kebbell, Nighy & Atwell In Talks For Wrath of The Titans

TheWrap is reporting on some new casting information for sequel to Clash of The Titans which is titled Wrath of The Titans. We already know that Sam Worthington, Gemma Arterton, Liam Nesson and Ralph Fiennes are reprising their roles.

Edgar Ramirez (Domino, Carlos) is in final negations to play God of War Ares which had previously been rumored for Javier Bardem. Tobey Kebbell (RockNRolla, Dead Man Shoes, Prince of Persia) is also in talks for the role of Agenor who might be the son of Poseidon a half god similar to Perseus. James Franco had been rumored for the role of Agenor previously. Bill Nighy has been offered the role of Hephaestus the immortal blacksmith of the Gods but isn't as solid as the previous offers.

In an odd twist Warner Bros. and director Jonathan Liebesman are looking to recast the role of Princess Andromeda which had been portayed by Alexa Davalos in the original film. The site lists Captain American actress Hayley Atwell as one of the many actresses testing for role. Others include French actress Clemence Poesy who is best known from In Bruges, 127 Hours and Deathly Hollows. Also Dominique McElligott (Moon) and Georgina Haig (Wasted On The Youth) who both tested for Gwen Stacy in the Spider-Man which went to Emma Stone. Black Swan supporting actress Janet Montgomery is also in the mix. I expect the role to be more than just the girl in distress considering the involvement of Atwell and Poesy.
