English actress
Sally Hawkins has joined the cast of the upcoming
Godzilla movie! That means that
Happy Go Lucky star will join previously announced
Aaron Taylor-Johnson,
Elizabeth Olsen,
Ken Watanabe,
David Strathairn,
Brian Cranston and
Juliette Binoche. So far – so good,
hope you agree?
Gareth Edwards will direct this reboot from a script written by
Max Borenstein,
Frank Darabont and
Dave Callaham, and although not much is known about the movie plot at this moment – at least we can remind you that the movie is already set to open on March 16th, 2014.
Director Edwards and
Legendary Pictures intend to approach the film and its characters in the most authentic manner possible, and as we previously mentioned – the story should center on a soldier (that's the
mysterious part) and should involve at least two monsters in addition to the titular creature.
As for
Sally Hawkins, the only thing we know at this moment is that she's attached to play a scientist.
Anyway,
Godzilla began shooting last week in Vancouver, so I guess we'll soon have more updates to share! Stay tuned!
