Christoph Waltz to Play Green Hornet Villain!

September 14, 2009


Christoph Waltz, who stole the show in Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, has been cast as the villain in Columbia Pictures' The Green Hornet! Deadline Hollywood reports:

I'm told that ICM's actor Christoph Waltz who won Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival for playing a Nazi in Inglourious Basterds (and is a shoo-in for an Oscar nomination) has now been cast as villain Chudnofsky in Sony's The Green Hornet opposite Seth Rogen and Cameron Diaz.

The Michel Gondry-directed comic book adaptation is scheduled for a December 17 release.

Wow, looks like he can't wait to end his Hollywood career. From the hottest Oscar contender of the year to the villain in a Seth Rogen movie.
