Werner Herzog Is Cruise 'One Shot' Enemy

In what's most likely probably the most surprising casting news shortly, it seems that famous documentarian Werner Herzog continues to be cast within the approaching Tom Cruise vehicle, "One Shot," in line with the Lee Child novel of the identical title. Herzog will have The Zec, an old prisoner of war and also the mind from the conspiracy behind the killings Cruise will investigate, reviews Variety. Because the casting of Tom Cruise as Child's legendary character, Jack Reacher, within the adaptation of "One Shot," lots of people have asked the casting choice and also the integrity from the film in general. Lee describes Reacher like a hulking presence, far in the much shorter Cruise. For any movie that's faced very little else besides negative press, news of Herzog joining the cast should inject necessary existence in to the hype machine. Individuals who understand the German auteur be aware of type of strangeness Herzog can provide. Legendary for the documentaries he narrates themself—like the truly amazing "Grizzly Guy"—Herzog together with his oddly beautiful German accent (think about a mix between Schwarzenegger and Morgan Freeman indeed, it inspired Hugo Weaving's "Captain America" voice!) is easily the most inspired option to play a film villain in quite a while. If people will not fill the theater to determine a shorter Jack Reacher, an excellent baddie could certainly have more people interested. Herzog joins a cast that already includes Robert Duvall, Rosamund Pike and Richard Jenkins. This really is all welcome news, however for my money, I'd pay to determine Tom Cruise face served by only the disembodied voice of Werner Herzog.
