THR reports that Halle Berry, Ben Whishaw and Hugo Weaving will co-star with Hanks in Cloud Atlas, a film that will attempt to tell six different stories -- from a 19th century notary to a rebel clone in the near future -- with each actor playing multiple roles.
In other words: bananas. Filming on Cloud Atlas is set to begin this fall. Warner Bros. will release the film domestically, while Focus Features International is now looking for a buyer at the Marche de Cannes for the worldwide rights.
