Hugh Laurie is the villain in Brad Bird's 'Tomorrowland'
Chances are we're not going to know anything more about Brad Bird and Damon Lindelof's Tomorrowland until they're good and ready, but at least we know who'll be starring in it. With George Clooney already aboard the top secret project, the next to come aboard is Dr. House himself, Hugh Laurie, and of course he's playing a bad guy.
Remember, he was supposed to play the villain in Robotech before dropping out a few months ago, so this makes for a solid replacement gig. All we know about the film so far is that it's said to be in the vein of Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and is based on an idea from deep within Disney's history.
Another reason to be excited. Tomorrowland opens on December 19th 2014. [THR]
