Mad Men's Jared Harris Joins Paul W.S. Anderson's POMPEII

Movie Paul W.S. Anderson about 11 years agoby Joey Paur

Jared Harris (Mad Men, Sherlock Holmes 2) has joined the cast of Paul W.S. Anderson's 3D action-adventure film Pompeii. He joins the previously cast Kit Harington (Game of Thrones) and Emily Browning (Sucker Punch).

The story is set in 79 A.D. and follows Milo (Harington), a slave turned invincible gladiator who finds himself in a race against time to save his true love Flavia (Browning), the daughter of a wealthy merchant (Harris) who has been unwillingly betrothed to a corrupt Roman general.

I always thought the story of Pompeii would make a good film, I'm just not really all that excited that it's being directed by Anderson. He's putting together a pretty solid cast though, so that's good.
