The actor who played Charlie for 3 seasons on the ABC hit SF show “Lost” can now be found on the set of the newest mutant film, “X-Men Origins: Wolverine.”
Dominic Monaghan will star as Barnell in the film. His character is this weird mysterious fellow from Wolverine’s foggy past. Barnell, a mutant himself, can make different forms of energy do whatever he wants.
Joining the cast with Monaghan is relative newcomer Daniel Henney. Called Agent Zero, he is a member of the secretive Weapon X program, the place where Wolverine was hatched. Zero is the program’s crack marksman and tracker.
Dominic Monahan and Daniel Henney join a cast that includes Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Liev Schreiber, Danny Huston, Taylor Kitsch, will.i.am, Lynn Collins and Ryan Reynolds.
This is a worldwide filming event, shooting in locations as vastly different as New Zealand, Australia and New Orleans. “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” is set for a May 1, 2009 release in most of the world and opens one day earlier in Germany and the Netherlands.
