The cast is growing for Roland Emmerich’s upcoming apocalyptic action spectacle “2012,” and the latest to join the gang is Amanda Peet, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Thandie Newton, Oliver Platt and Danny Glover are already on board.

The film focuses on a little group of people struggling with the large-scale cataclysm ensuing from the end of the world in the year 2012, as predicted by the Mayan calendar.

Peet will jumps into the female lead as Cusack’s ex-wife. Cusack himself plays a limo driver who wants to become a writer, with Glover starring as the president and Thandie Newton playing the latter’s daughter.

Emmerich is directing a script he wrote with Harald Kloser. The two previously collaborated on the screenplay for Emmerich’s recent action spectacle “10,000 B.C.”

Peet was last seen alongside Cusack in “Martian Child.” She will next star in Chris Carter’s “The X-Files: I Want to Believe.”

Peet playing Cusack’s ex? Knowing Roland Emmerich, he’ll probably have Cusack’s character embark on a perilous mission to rescue his former wife from some terrible danger. We’ll see what happens… when the world ends yet again.
