Emmy-nominated actor Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad, Do The Right Thing) has joined the cast of director Francis Ford Coppola’s sci-fi drama Megalopolis. Esposito joins the star-studded cast that includes Adam Driver, Forest Whitaker, Nathalie Emmanuel, Jon Voight, Laurence Fishburne, Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Chloe Fineman, Kathryn Hunter, Dustin Hoffman, DB Sweeney, Talia Shire, Jason Schwartzman, Bailey Ives, Grace Vanderwaal, and James Remar.

Coppola, who wrote the script, is shooting in Atlanta and New York. In the story, “the fate of Rome haunts a modern world unable to solve its own social problems in this epic story of political ambition, genius, and dangerous love.”

The budget is just under $100 million, and Coppola recently told Deadline the film is on schedule and on budget.

Esposito can currently be seen in the recently released Netflix heist drama series, Kaleidoscope, which boasts a new way of storytelling, in which fans can watch the episodes in any order.
