The only thing we knew was that Cage failed to reach a proper deal with Columbia. There was more to it though, and Cage now revealed what happened.

After delivering what I believe is easily one of the year's best performance as nasty Col. Hans Landa in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds," Austrian actor Christoph Waltz is now set to play the bad guy in Michel Gondry's upcoming "The Green Hornet."

Nicolas Cage was supposed to play the villain in the crime adventure, but he recetly dropped out. Variety says Waltz will play Chudnofsky, a Los Angeles crime lord who tries to bring together a number of gangs to form his own criminal force.

The cast of Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglorious Bastards” is growing.

According to Variety, Diane Kruger, Christoph Waltz and Raul Rust are the latest to join the ultraviolent WWII drama.

Kruger, whose acting credits include "Troy," “National Treasure” and "National Treasure: Book of Secrets," plays German actress Bridget von Hammersmark, who’s somehow involved in a plot to sabotage the Nazis.

As for Waltz, he stars as Col. Hans Landa, the film’s main antagonist. Specific details concerning Rust’s role are unknown at this stage.

Also on board of the flick are Brad Pitt, Eli Roth, Mike Myers, Michael Fassbender and B.J. Novak. Simon Pegg was also in talks to play a British lieutenant, but he had to drop out because of scheduling conflicts.

I’m very glad to hear that the casting process is going so well. That way they can head into principal photography on time and get that picture ready to theaters as quickly as possible.
