"Finding Dory" "50 Shades of Grey" "Gods of Egypt"....Casting news comin' at ya!!!!





Three films enter, three actors join.  Like Thunderdome.  Or not.

Anyhooo...I have a bit of casting news for three VERY different films.

First up is weird actor extraordinaire, Willem Dafoe who told "Total Film" that he will reprise his role as the scarred Gil in Pixar's Finding Dory.  Dafoe also added that he's already begun work on the project and that he believes Finding Dory will be better than Finding Nemo.  That's high praise considering that the consensus is that Finding Nemo is the best Pixar film ever.

Next up is everyone's favorite Mom Porn film 50 Shades of Grey.  "Deadline" reports that actress Jennifer Ehle (Zero Dark Thirty) has been cast as the main character Anastasia's mother, Carla.  This comes on the heels of Ehle also being cast in the heist film The Forger, directed by Phillip Martin.

Lastly, Brenton Thwaites has signed on for a lead role in director Alex Proyas's film Gods of Egypt.  This news comes, once again, care of "Deadline."  Thwaites joins Geoffrey Rush, Gerard Butler, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.  The film revolves around an attempt to destroy Set (Butler) the ancient Egyptian god of the desert.

No word on a release date yet for Gods of Egypt but 50 Shades of Grey releases August 1, 2014 and Finding Dory hits theaters June 17, 2016.
