Jim Beaver, the awesome character actor from DEADWOOD, JUSTIFIED, SUPERNATURAL and BREAKING BAD, has nabbed a role in Guillermo del Toro’s next-next project, CRIMSON PEAK. He announced the news himself on his FB:
Okay, I’m back again with that big deal that I couldn’t talk about but couldn’t shut up about either. Well, now I can talk about it, because today it came true. Guillermo del Toro, director of PAN’S LABYRINTH, HELLBOY, and the upcoming PACIFIC RIM, has cast me in one of five leading roles in his new film CRIMSON PEAK, a Gothic ghost story also starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Jessica Chastain, and Charlie Hunnam. We start shooting in Toronto in January.
As he says, CRIMSON PEAK stars Charlie Hunnam, Benedict Cumberbatch, Jessica Chastain, perhaps Mia Wasikowski, and now one Jim Beaver.
