It will be inhabited by the alter ego of people from the real world, and Kruger will play the role of Deji Thoris - the Belgian witch who brings the hero Karella back to life every time the Nazis kill him. Filming for the drama will begin in the fall and will also feature Leslie Mann, Janelle Monet and Aiza Gonzalez.

When the Second World War came to an end, he went to his native Austria, and then hid in Argentina. In 1960, Adolf was caught by Mossad intelligence agents, taken to Israel, where he was convicted of war crimes and executed. Oscar Isaac previously played the role of Peter Malkin , who led a group of agents looking for Eichmann .  Timothy Hutton ("Impact") will go to the set of Ridley Scott's new film, the drama All the Money in the World . Based on true events, the thriller will focus on the kidnapping of Jean Paul Getty III - the grandson of one of the richest men in the world. Hatton got the role of Getty Sr. attorney. The oil tycoon refused to pay the ransom for his grandson and in the end lent only a fraction of the amount, and then as a loan to his own son. The guy returned home, but his mental health was irreparably damaged. Also in the cast of the tape are Kevin Spacey, Michelle Williams, Mark Wahlberg and Charlie Plummer.
