Tom Hanks

We’d already announced that Tom Hanks and Ron Howard would reunite for another Dan Brown adaptation last summer with INFERNO and now they’ve added more big names to the dramatic cast and we’ve got the first promotional shots below.

With a screenplay by David Koepp, based on the book by Dan Brown, the film is set for release on October 14th, 2016 and begins principal photography at the end of April. INFERNO continues the Harvard symbologist’s adventures on screen: when Robert Langdon wakes up in an Italian hospital with amnesia, he teams up with Sienna Brooks, a doctor he hopes will help him recover his memories and prevent a madman from releasing a global plague connected to Dante’s “Inferno.

With Felicity Jones previously confirmed as Dr. Sienna Brooks, they’ve added Irrfan Khan, best known for his roles in SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE and LIFE OF PI, who plays Harry Sims also known as The Provost. French actor Omar Sy, who was in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST and will be in JURASSIC WORLD will play Christoph Bruder and they’re joined by Sidse Babett Knudsen, star of the Danish television series Borgen who will portray Dr. Elizabeth Sinskey, the head of the World Health Organization.

There are more people we hear on the horizon, so we’ll bring you the latest as we hear it, here’s those shots:
