Thomas McCarthy (writer and director,
The Visitor) takes a role in Roland Emmerich's
2012.
According to
The Hollywood Reporter, McCarthy joins an ensemble cast led by John Cusack that includes Amanda Peet, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Thandie Newton, Danny Glover and Oliver Platt.
McCarthy will play the boyfriend of Peet, who is the ex-wife of Cusack's character.
"As an actor, I've never worked on anything with this scale before, and I always go see these movies," he said. "And then there's the director part of me. I get really excited about working with directors like this, who do things that are so wildly different from me. And he really is. He works on a totally different canvas.
2012 is set to shoot in August in Vancouver.

sorry im fucking bored today, didnt mean to get off on a dull non-movie tangent.
i have no idea who this mccarthy guy is though.
but whatever, if its a movie about december 21 2012 and the end of the world, or the flipping of the earths magnetic poles, or the return of quetzlcoatl and the birth of a new consciousness then im in.
If as they say its just a natural disaster then they better not make it like the Day after Tomorow, cause its so boring to see the same thing over and over.
I wonder if we will se any aliens perhaps? :D
