Following the recent addition of Carey Mulligan, Deadline brings word that Golden Globe-nominated actor Paul Dano and The Big Bang Theory alum Kunal Nayyar have been tapped to join Adam Sandler in Netflix’s upcoming film adaptation of Spaceman.
Nayyar gained recognition for his role as Rajesh Koothrappali in the hit sitcom The Big Bang Theory, which had wrapped up its 12-season run in 2019.
He is also currently working on another project with the streamer, which is a sports comedy film titled Hustle.
This project marks the reunion between Mulligan and Dano, who previously worked together in the Little Miss Sunshine actor’s 2018 directorial debut film Wildlife.
