Darren Aronofsky's NOAH Casts Two Little Known Actors As Cain And Abel
Darren Aronofsky's biblical epic has surprisingly added Cain and Abel to the retelling of the well-known story of Noah's Ark. Who will play the sons of Adam and Eve? You're unlikely to have ever heard of them, but hit the jump for details!
Iceland Review (via The Playlist) reports that little known Icelandic actors Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson and Arnar Dan have joined the cast of Noah as Cain and Abel [more details on their story can be found HERE]. The two may seem out of place in a film which will retell the well-known Bible tale of Noah and his Ark, but the site goes on to mention that they aren't set to have many lines (meaning that their role in the film will probably amount to little more than a brief flashback). They join the already impressive cast which includes Russell Crowe, Emma Watson, Jennifer Connelly, Logan Lerman, Ray Winstone, and Anthony Hopkins. Noah opens on March 28th, 2014.
