Oscar winner Ben Kingsley is joining the cast of Ender’s Game.
Kingsley will play Mazer Rackham, a legendary war hero in the big-screen adaptation of the award winning novel.
Harrison Ford, Asa Butterfield, Hailee Stanfield and Abigail Breslin are also in the cast.
Woo hoo! This is sounding better and better!
Mazer Rackham is Maori. It is very clear in the books about this. As much as I like Ben Kinsley, I think it would have been nice if they found a Maori actor for that role, like Cliff Curtis.
