Given that writer-director David Ayer showed off the main cast of his latest, tank thriller **Fury a couple of weeks ago, we weren’t expecting a new piece of casting. We are, however, happy to learn that Empire** favourite Jason Isaacs is aboard{
Fury finds Brad Pitt as an Army sergeant nicknamed Wardaddy (unless his family had some incredible foresight when it came to naming their sprogs) who commands a five-man hunk of battle-armour and guts through Germany as the Nazi regime begins to crumble in 1945. The enemy cannot be counted out entirely, however, and the mission will be a tough one.
Michael Pena, Scott Eastwood, Shia LaBeouf and Logan Lerman are the crew going through hell alongside their commander. Isaacs is set to play a veteran captain who advises Pitt when he needs it.
Ayer is putting the cast through their paces right now in London. As for Isaacs, he has A Single Shot, Field Of Lost Shoes and Things People Do under his belt. He’s also set to appear in a segment of portmanteau pic Rio, I Love You.
