MGM’s Nazi-hunt drama Operation Finale, starring Oscar Isaac and Ben Kingsley, has gained several more actors for its cast according to Deadline. Chris Weitz (A Better Life) is directing from a script by Matthew Orton. It is currently filming in Argentina.
Joining Isaac and Kingsley in the film are Ohad Knoller (Munich), Greg Hill (The Wolfman’s Hammer), Torben Liebrecht (X Company), Mike Hernandez (Honored), Greta Scacchi (Brideshead Visited) and Pêpê Rapazote (Narcos).
Isaac will portray legendary Mossad agent Peter Malkin in the period film, which is based on a true story of the 1960 covert mission where Malkin infiltrated Argentina and captured Adolf Eichmann (Oscar winner Ben Kingsley), the Nazi officer who masterminded the transportation logistics that brought millions of innocent Jews to their deaths in concentration camps.
