With filming now underway, Deadline is reporting that Charlie Day (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) has added several new additions to the cast of his directorial debut El Tonto in Ray Liotta (Goodfellas), Adrien Brody (The Pianist), Travis Fimmel (Vikings), Ken Jeong (Crazy Rich Asians), Dean Norris (Breaking Bad) and Edy Ganem (Devious Maids).
El Tonto sees Day playing “a mute simpleton who gets off a bus in Los Angeles and by happenstance suddenly rises through the Hollywood scene to become a celebrity, only to then lose it all.”
The new additions join a cast that also includes the previously announced Kate Beckinsale (Underworld), Jason Sudeikis (Horrible Bosses), Edie Falco (The Sopranos), John Malkovich (The ABC Murders) and Jillian Bell (Rough Night).
