Dr. Stuhlbarg Reporting For Duty

I don't mean to do a new post for every single cast member that gets announced for Luca Guadaginino's next film -- the filming-this-summer thriller After the Hunt starring Julia Roberts and Andrew Garfield and Ayo Edibiri -- but when it's names like the ones I just mentioned or when it's news on the level of a reunion with his Call Me By Your Name and Bones and All actor Michael Stuhlbarg I think I can be forgiven. As explained previously in my first post about this movie it stars Julia Roberts as a college professor whose own troublesome past starts bubbling up when a colleague gets run outta town for bad behavior -- it's hard not to immediately picture Mr. Stuhlbarg playing said colleague, given how in his wheelhouse college professors are. He's performed two of my favorites of all time now, after all! 

That said I will always love Luca for casting him way way way against type in Bones and All, where he sweeps in for one scene playing a creepy redneck cannibal freakazoid type. What an unsettling pleasure that sequence is!
