Paul Giamatti And Toby Jones To Meet Morgan

Paul Giamatti And Toby Jones To Meet Morgan

Joining the cast of Luke Scott's sci-fi

Kate Mara and Anya Taylor-Joy were cast last month, and now Paul Giammati and Toby Jones have signed onto the cast of Luke Scott's sci-fi thriller Morgan. Boyd Holbrook (Run All Night, Gone Girl) is also negotiating to jump aboard, but hasn't quite made a deal yet.

Morgan revolves around a corporate risk-management consultant (Mara), although the actual corporate risk-management depicted on screen will likely be kept to a minimum when the consultant is summoned to a remote lab to evaluate an artificial being (Taylor-Joy) with a view to its termination.

Giamatti will be playing a psychologist who struggles to actually relate to people, while Jones will be the chief scientist in charge of the facility. The role Holbrook is up for is that of a nutritionist working for Jones.

There are shades of Ex Machina in Seth Owen’s 2014 Black List script, although it also taps into Ridley Scott’s A.I. explorations in Alien and Prometheus. Sir Ridders, who recently wrapped directing Mara in The Martian, is producing alongside Scott Free's Michael Schaefer and Elishia Holmes.

Luke Scott - Ridley's son - worked as second unit director on Exodus: Gods And Kings, and makes his solo directorial feature debut here. Shooting, by the sound of things, should be underway in the near future, but there are no release dates pencilled in so far.
