Michael Douglas and Orlando Bloom are 'Unlocked', Louis C.K. Joins 'Trumbo'



 Michael Douglas may have Ant-Man on the way and Orlando Bloom will be notching arrows in The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, but the two will team up on something much smaller soon. They're set to join Noomi Rapace in Unlocked, a thriller from Michael Apted. Apted is the director behind the "Up" series of documentaries, The World is Not Enough, Nell, Gorillas in the Mist, and numerous others. He most recently co-directed the surf drama Chasing Mavericks. Unlocked stars Rapace as an interrogator for the CIA who accidentally reveals information to terrorists then must race to stop a biological attack in London.

Comedian Louis C.K., who was so good in American Hustle and Blue Jasmine, has joined the cast of Trumbo, Jay Roach's biopic on blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo. Bryan Cranston plays the titular Hollywood writer whose career was destroyed after he refused to testify in front of Senator McCarthy's  House Un-American Activities Committee. Trumbo went on to win a pair of Academy Awards anyway while using a pseudonym. C.K. will play fellow blacklisted writer Arlen Hird. Helen Mirren, John Goodman, Elle Fanning, and Diane Lane co-star.
