Toni Collette, Naomi Ackie and Mark Ruffalo have joined Robert Pattinson as cast for Oscar winning director Bong Joon Ho's next film, an adapation of Edward Ashton's Mickey7.

Which tells the story of an expendable employee who upon death, triggers the generation of a clone replacement.

Or presumed death.

In this instance after Mickey7 is presumed dead a Mickey8 is grown to replace him.

Should anyone become aware of the anomaly both would likely be terminated.

We've not seen Parasite - for which Bong Joon Ho won many awards - but love both Snowpiercer and Okja so this film would doubtless be worthy of Toni's talents.

Note - while being reported to have joined its cast, Toni and Mark are still negotiating deals.

Perhaps so great is everyone's confidence in the film they'd regard any actor as being crazy for walking away from it.
