The Oil Slick: Noah Emmerich ("Dark Winds", Jane Got a Gun), Trai Byers ("Empire", The 24th) and Cameron Britton (Torso, Gambit and Rogue) have signed on to the ensemble cast of the football true story drama, The Oil Slick, which tells the story of the tumultuous 1993 season of the Houston Oilers. Emmerich will play the team's calm head coach, Jack Pardee. Byers will play star quarterback Warren Moon, and Britton will play Jeff Alm, a defensive lineman. John Lee Hancock is directing the film from a script by Jacob Jones.
Berserker: Kristoffer Joner (The Revenant, Mission: Impossible - Fallout), Clara Rugaard (Press Play, I Am Mothers) and Lars Mikkelsen ("The Witcher", The Day Will Come) have signed on to Ben Wheatley and Dwight Gallo's Viking thriller, Berserker. Joner will play the brother of Viggo Mortensen's lead Viking character. Rugaard will play Mortensen's daughter, while Mikkelsen will play a king who sends Mortensen on a settlement expedition that goes very wrong.
Blue Ridge: Patrick Wilson (Sinatra, RoboCop Versus The Terminator), Walton Goggins (Bunker 17, Hunter) and Abbie Cornish (Silver Surfer: The Power Cosmic, Black Dublin) have signed on to join Matthew McConaughey and Robert Pattinson in the Appalachia-set fugitive thriller, Blue Ridge. Wilson will play a US Marshal, Goggins will play a prison warden and Cornish will play the wife of McConaughey's prisoner character. David Mackenzie is directing the film, which is the latest collaboration between writers Jimmy Ellis and John Malone.
Booster Gold: Back in Time: The island of Themyscira will apparently be a major setting in the latest Booster Gold adventure, so it should come as little surprise that Wonder Woman alumni Alexandra Daddario (Extra Ordinary, Wonder Woman), Camila Mendes ("Riverdale", Wonder Woman) and Julia Roberts (Wonder Woman, My Musical Adventure in Another World as an Old Man!) will have roles in the blockbuster, reprising the characters they all played in Wonder Woman. Phil Lord & Chris Miller direct the DC Comics Universe production from a script by Chad Taylor.
Carpenter: Nicolas Cage (Twisted Metal, Of Rocks and Sand) is set to headline the mystery film, Carpenter. He will play a middle-aged office worker who begins building a large boat in his front yard but doesn't know why as his family begins to fall apart around him. Richard Kelly (The Box, Southland Tales) is set to direct the film, his first in over a decade. The film hails from writer Roy Horne (Gracie, Open Hearts). Also notable is that the film will feature a soundtrack from Tangerine Dream.
