Bill Nighy Total Recall. Nighy in talks for "Total Recall" remake.LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Bill Nighy is in negotiations to join the cast of "Total Recall," Columbia's Colin Farrell-led remake of the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger action movie.

The movie, which starts shooting June in Toronto and will be directed by Len Wiseman, also stars Bryan Cranston as the villain, and Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel as the female leads. Ethan Hawke is on board for a cameo.

The movie ditches the Martian storyline from the original film, which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, and instead involves nation states Euromerica and New Shanghai, with Douglas Quaid (Farrell), a factory worker in the latter who begins to believe he is a spy -- although he doesn't know for which side.


Nighy will play Quatto, the leader of the resistance. (In the 1990 movie, the character, called Kuato, was played by Marshall Bell with the conceit that the leader was actually a small mutant living off the human.)

Nighy has made a name in the geek community playing a vampire ruler in the "Underworld" movies and Davy Jones in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise. He can next be seen on the big screen as Minister Rufus Scrimgeour in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Part 2."
