Fantastic Four‘s Tim Blake Nelson, pictured, has joined the cast of Colossal, the indie sci-fi actioner from writer-director Nacho Vigalondo (Timecrimes, VHS Viral, Extraterrestrial), Deadline writes.
Anne Hathaway stars as a woman who moves back to her hometown after losing her job and boyfriend — only to discover that she is somehow strangely connected to a giant lizard-like monster that materialized over Tokyo and is wreaking havoc on that city.
Nelson will play Garth, who has a drug problem that he doesn’t do a particularly good job of hiding. Austin Stowell also stars in the film, which is set to start production October 18 in Vancouver.
