Josh Holloway goes from the island of Lost to the life of a secret agent, as he becomes the latest recruit for Mission: Impossible 4…
Lost alumni are having little difficulty landing movie assignments, at least if the last two days are anything to go by. Yesterday, we had Maggie Grace joining the cast of the final two Twilight films. And today? News has come through from The Hollywood Reporter that Sawyer himself, Mr Josh Holloway, has joined the cast of Mission: Impossible 4.
Holloway is set to play a secret agent who's working for Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his task force. And he joins a cast that now includes returnees Ving Rhames and Simon Pegg, alongside newcomers Paula Patton, Vladimir Mashkov, Michael Nvqvist and Jeremy Renner.
The most exciting new addition to the franchise remains the choice of Brad Bird (The Incredibles, The Iron Giant, Ratatouille) to direct. And he'd better get to work. The film is due in cinemas on December 16th 2011.
