Fresh off the dual cancelations of Marvel's Iron Fist and Luke Cage, Jessica Henwick has lined up her next job and it's a big one as she's signed on for a key role in Legendary's Godzilla vs. Kong.
Variety is reporting that rising star Jessica Henwick has joined the ever-growing cast of Legendary's highly-anticipated Godzilla vs. Kong. Details on her character are being kept under lock-and-key at Monarch for now.
The 26-year-old English actress joins a massive ensemble cast that will also feature Primetime Emmy-winner Kyle Chandler (Godzilla: King of the Monsters), 2x Primetime Emmy-nominee Millie Bobby Brown (Godzilla: King of the Monsters), Golden Globe-nominee Zhang Ziyi (Godzilla: King of the Monsters), Danai Gurira (Avengers: Infinity War), Julian Dennison (Deadpool 2), 2x Primetime Emmy-nominee Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta), Academy Award-nominee Demián Bichir (The Nun), Golden Globe-winner Alexander Skarsgård (Big Little Lies), Golden Globe-nominee Rebecca Hall (Iron Man 3), and Eiza González (Baby Driver).
Adam Wingard is directing the upcoming fourth chapter in Warner Bros. and Legendary's burgeoning MonsterVerse, which has been slated to roar into theaters on May 22, 2020.
Henwick is best known for her series regular role as Colleen Wing on the recently canceled Iron Fist, a role she reprised in a pair of fellow short-lived Marvel series, The Defenders and Luke Cage. Her other more prominent credits include Nymeria Sand on HBO's Game of Thrones and X-wing pilot Jessika Pava in Lucasfilm's Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
