Last week, word arrived that Harrison Ford would be starring in an adaptation of Jack London's Call Of The Wild. In case you worried that he'd be all alone in the chilly wilderness, worry no more. Dan Stevens has landed one of the other main roles.

Ford is playing John Thornton, a prospector hunting for gold in the tough Yukon Territory during the 1890s. There's no information yet on what Stevens will be playing.

Chris Sanders is directing the film, rolling the cameras in California on location and on sound stages, utilising digital effects to bring certain elements to life, including dogs for the story's sledding sequences.

Stevens can be found on TV's Legion and has Gareth Evans' Apostle arriving this autumn.
