Willem Dafoe to join Del Toro in Pacific Rim?
Still not sure about that title for Guillermo Del Toro’s monster movie. Pacific Rim? I don’t know, but what I do know that if Willem Dafoe does join the production, as Variety has reported, I’ll be super, duper, stupid excited.
TV actor Rob Kazinsky from CBS’ Brothers & Sisters has also joined the cast. Dafoe is being eyed as a rogue scientist with expertise on alien creatures, while Kazinsky would portray a member of the team trying to defeat the invaders. Charlie Hunnan, Idris Elba, Charlie Day and Max Martini are already cast.
Pacific Rim is scheduled for a July 21st, 2013 release date from Warner Bros.
