Most recently seen as circus strongman Dell Toledo in American Horror Story: Freakshow, Michael Chiklis is keeping it sinister for his next role. He'll join Noomi Rapace in the sci-fi thriller **Rupture, where he'll play the heavy yet again.
The film's director is Secretary's Steven Shainberg, and Brian Nelson (30 Days Of Night) wrote the screenplay. The plot is still largely under wraps, but we do know that Rapace is playing a single mother, struggling to raise her son alone, who is abducted by a mysterious organisation.
Chiklis will play the organisation's point man, overseeing the whole nefarious business.
American Sniper's Andrew Lazar is among the producers, and more casting news is expected soon. Shooting starts next month.
