The cast of Robert Zemeckis’ upcoming Marwencol narrative remake continues to grow today as Variety reports that Game of Thrones and Star Wars: The Force Awakens star Gwendoline Christie is set to join Steve Carell and Diane Kruger for the Universal Pictures production.
Gwendoline Christie, who recently starred on Jane Campion and Gerard Lee’s mystery series Top of the Lake, will return as Captain Phasma in the highly anticipated Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
Still without an official title, the narrative film is based on Jeff Malmberg’s 2010 documentary Marwencol.
Marwencol tells the true story of Mark Hogancamp, a man who, after being nearly beaten to death, fell into a nine-day coma.
