Thinking China

And Zhang Yimou’s Great Wall project keeps drawing ’em in.

Pedro Pascal – the Red Viper from HBO’s Game of Thrones! – is in talks with the powers that be about joining Matt Damon and Bryan Cranston in the epic film about an elite force taking a last stand for humanity on the iconic structure.

The Great Wall, which would become the largest film ever shot entirely in China (unless, you know, North Korea has a problem with that, too), is set for a Thanksgiving 2016 release and will mark Yimou’s Enlish-language debut.

Pascal will next be seen on Netflix’s Narcos, and will play Pontius Pilate in the remake of Ben-Hur.
