Rodrigo Santoro to star in Jamie Foxx untitled Netflix film
By Ariba Bhuvad
Rodrigo Santoro is set to star in an untitled Netflix sci-fi thriller starring Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Rodrigo Santoro aka Hector of Westworld is rooting himself across streaming services and is now joining Netflix after his latest role in Hulu series, Reprisal. Santoro is joining Amy Landecker (Transparent), Colson Baker, aka Machine Gun Kelly (Nerve), Allen Maldonado (The Last O.G.), Andrene Ward-Hammond (The Hate U Give), and Kyanna Simpson (The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks), according to Deadline.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jamie Foxx, and Dominique Fishback are in the lead roles for the film and will be directed by Henry Joost (Nerve) and Ariel Schulman (Catfish). Details on the plot and characters have not yet been released, and as of now, everything is being kept under wraps.
Given the nature of Westworld, it’s tough to say whether or not Santoro’s Hector will make an appearance in season 3 but he certainly has more than enough to keep him busy in the interim.
Between Hulu’s revenge thriller Reprisal pilot and now the untitled Netflix thriller, Santoro has a lot on his plate and we can’t wait to see what is role is in this specific thriller.
