Now this is interesting casting. Variety got word that three time Emmy winner Bryan Cranston is in final negotiations to play the lead villain in the upcoming remake of the 1990 action/sci-fi flick, Total Recall. While nothing is official yet, if Cranston takes the gig, he'll be playing opposite the previously cast Colin Farrell, who'll take Schwarzenegger's role this time around. Total Recall is produced by Neal Moritz and will be directed by Len Wiseman (Die Hard 4, Underworld). Although I'm not particularly gone on the idea of Wiseman directing, I found his entry into the Die Hard franchise to be kind of fun, so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. And if Cranston does sign on? Hell yes, I'll be excited. What say you, readers?
*Interesting nerd fact, Cranston stars opposite Dean Norris on his hit US show Breaking Bad. Dean Norris played the mutant Tony in the original Total Recall.
