Joining Man Of Steel Henry Cavill as 'Napoleon Solo' and The Lone Ranger Armie Hammer as 'Illya Kuryakin' is something of a British icon in Hugh Grant, who is set to play the unnamed head of British naval intelligence. The original TV series ran from 1964-68, and starred Robert Vaughan and David McCallum as agents of the United Network Command for Law Enforcement, as they battled the evil forces of "Thrush". Guy Ritchie will direct the movie version, and production is scheduled to commence next month with Alicia Vikander (A Royal Affair) and Elizabeth Debicki (The Great Gatsby) also on board.
