More casting news for Jonathan Mostow's The Surrogates - Marsellus Wallace will be reuniting with Butch Coolidge.
Ving Rhames and Rosamund Pike have joined the cast that already includes Bruce Willis and Radha Mitchell in a movie from the creators of Terminator 3 about a world where human interaction is entirely conducted with robotic avatars while people remain secluded indoors.
It sounds like Rhames might finally get a role worthy of his talent, as he's playing a charismatic cult leader who eschews the use of these surrogates and leads an rebellion. One of my biggest problems with the Mission: Impossible franchise and Hollywood in general is its criminal underuse of Ving Rhames. The guy is awesome, and everyone as Pulp Fiction as proof. Let him shine, people.
