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.
