This from deadline.com:


"I'm told that ICM's actor Christoph Waltz who won Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival for playing a Nazi in Inglourious Basterds (and is a shoo-in for an Oscar nomination) has now been cast as villain Chudnofsky in Sony's The Green Hornet opposite Seth Rogen and Cameron Diaz."

This is sweet news. If you have seen Inglorious Bastards then you know how good Christoph Waltz can play a cold blooded killer on screen. I still want to see this guy go up against the Bear Jew. 10-1 Bear Jew. But what a fun fight it would be to eat popcorn to.

If the below image is what the Green Hornet is gonna look like let's hope Christoph Waltz kicks this guy's Lilly ass all over the big screen

He was brilliant in Inglorious (which was ok...some of it was just far too slow for me. Tarantinos idea of building tension just bored me half the time) and he would actually make quite a good Red Skull!!!

well, I'll be damned :D

This guy is AWESOME!

by far the best actor in Inglorious Basterds (not saying everyone else sucked, they were amazing too, ust trying to show how awesome he is compared to the)

He's one of those guys you love to hate and hate to love at the same time.

I'm sold on Green Hornet now. I just want to see this guy again

Christoph Waltz played an amazing character in Inglourious Basterds. He definitely blew everyone away. I'm still a little leery about The Green Hornet (especially since the main attraction of the show was Bruce Lee who's obviously not in the movie), but if this movie does well, I'd assume it will be thanks to Christoph Waltz.

Thank goodness, at least Nick Cage ain't gonna be the villain! Waltz will bring class to GH. Still Rogen-bashing without hardly anything from the movie. Wait and see, I say!

Yesssss...Bring it on. IB was a fuuny movie. I love dark humor. If Waltz is in it. This movie has a chance. Make it Dark. VERY DARK.

Thats a bingo!

He was great in Basterds, but i hope this is not the beginning of him being typecast in token villain roles. Not sure how good an idea this is for him to do...

This movie keeps sounding better and better, while the naysayers just sound plain dumb.

bropous-Green Hornet is a lot more well known than Solomon Kane, so that kind of makes sense. Solomon Kane looks pretty sweet though. I'm sure someone will pick it up. And dude, what's with the caustic gay-bashing? Let's try to tone down the hate-speech, kay. This is supposed to be a friendly site.
