Oliver Jackson Cohen is set to lead the film

A philosophical question for you today: should you rejoice if one of your favourite actors gets the lead role in a major film but is set to play an invisible man? What are you to feast your eyes on, then? That is exactly our predicament, but we are still very happy for our dearest Oliver Jackson Cohen who just got a major gig at Universal. He will take the lead role in their INVISIBLE MAN which will start shooting this month in Australia. The cast already includes Elizabeth Moss, Aldis Hodge, Harriet Dyer and Storm Reid!

Oliver Jackson Cohen is one of our favourite faces which has graced so many big historical series from World Without End and Dracula to Mr. Selfridge, The Great Fire, Emerald City, and probably our favourite of his work - Man in an Orange Shirt in which he shined brightly next to another of our faves Julian Morris.

In the adaptation of H.G. Wells' novel, Elizabeth Moss will be Cecilia, who receives the news of her abusive ex boyfriend's suicide. She begins to rebuild her life for the better. However, her sense of reality is put into question when she begins to suspect her deceased lover is not actually dead! Stay tuned for more news on the project from the franchise which includes Luke Evans' Dracula Untold and Tom Cruise's The Mummy.
