$\"\"$ <\/a>Deadline<\/a> reports that Aidan Turner, the Irish actor who played Kili in the Hobbit<\/a><\/i> movies (he\u2019s the dwarf who told Evangeline Lilly\u2019s elf that he could have anything down his trousers<\/a>), has been cast as the apostle Andrew in Terrence Malick\u2019s The Last Planet<\/a><\/i>. It was revealed a few weeks ago that Belgian actor Matthias Schoenaerts (Bullhead<\/i>, Rust and Bone<\/i>) is playing Andrew\u2019s brother Peter in the film.<\/p>\n

Along the way, Deadline also reveals that the cast will include such Bible-movie veterans as Joseph Fiennes (who I interviewed<\/a> when Risen<\/a><\/i> came out three years ago), Douglas Booth (who played Shem in Darren Aronofsky\u2019s Noah<\/a><\/i>), Tawfeek Barhom (who played James in Mary Magdalene<\/a><\/i>) and Ben Kingsley (who played Potiphar in Joseph<\/a><\/i>, Moses in Moses<\/a><\/i>, the Narrator in the animated Ten Commandments<\/a><\/i>, and Joshua\u2019s father Nun in Exodus: Gods & Kings<\/a><\/i>). Their roles in the new film are currently unknown.<\/p>\n

Other actors include Martin McCann, Ori Pfeffer, Shadi Mar\u2019i, Makram Khoury, Numan Acar, Emilio De Marchi, Bjorn Thors, Alfonso Postiglione and Lorenzo Gioielli.<\/p>\n

They join the already-announced<\/a> G\u00e9za R\u00f6hrig, who is playing Jesus, and Mark Rylance, who is playing Satan in this film but previously played Jesus in An Incident in Judaea<\/i>.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
