Brad Pitt’s military satire War Machine has a home at Netflix and is busy finding itself a cast to go with it. Topher Grace is the latest to join the party, starring alongside its producer.
According to Deadline, Grace will be playing a civilian media whizz who’ll be helping a four star US general navigate the perilous waters of spin, modern 24/7 news cycles and the tips for cunningly burying bad news. Pitt will be playing the general, a character based on real-life salute-magnet Stanley McChrystal, in a $30 million budgeted satire that has Animal Kingdom's David Michôd behind the camera.
"War Machine is a rip-roaring, behind-the-facade tale of modern war decision-makers, from the corridors of power to the distant regions of America’s ambitions,” promises Ted Sarandos, Netflix's chief content officer. “Brad and David are a perfect team to make this timely, compelling and entertaining film.”
Grace, meanwhile, is popping up alongside Jesse Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart in American Ultra next, and will be appearing alongside Cate Blanchett and Robert Redford in Truth, a drama about US anchorman (not anchor lady) Dan Rather.
