Adrien Brody Predators Topher Grace

Ya know, I’d expect a movie like PREDATORS to either be filled with not so famous actors or a bunch of buff not so famous actors with one giant buff movie star like Arnold to teach them how it’s done and yet the casting for PREDATORS reboot produced by Robert Rodriguez, directed by Nimrod Antal has taken a surprising turn. Variety reported that Oscar winner Adrien Brody has signed on to play the lead heroic mercenary. Brody is a talented punk but last time I saw him on screen, the dude was as skinny as a stick figure.

We knew that Danny Trejo and Walton Goggins will be involved, the trades have confirmed it and along with them are Alice Braga, UFC Fighter Oleg Taktarov, Mahershalalhashbaz Ali (Benjamin Button), and Louiz Ozawa
But wait, that’s not all. The man who ruined Eddie Brock and brought us the lamest Venom in Spider-Man 3, Topher Grace is in talks to join the cast as well.
Hollywood Reporter knows what roles they’re going to play in this reboot
Brody plays the man who becomes the leader and is known as ‘a hunter of men’.
Grace plays an accountant-type whose unassuming facade masks a dangerous serial killer.
Braga plays the tough female killer.
Ali plays a man not afraid to die
Goggins plays the loose canon
Taktarov plays a former Russian special ops agent.
Trejo plays Cuchillo, a hardened warrior with twin uzis strapped to his back.

What’s even shocking about all this is that Brody was pursuing this project and he wanted it so badly that he even signed options to return for future installments. I guess he’s in dire need of a franchise.
Written by Rodriguez, Alex Litvak and Michael Finch. Production starts next month in Hawaii and then on to Rodriguez’s Troublemaker Studios in Austin after that.
PREDATORS opens July 9, 2010, release.
