John Leguizamo Joins Anya Taylor-Joy and Ralph Fiennes in Searchlight Thriller THE MENU

John Leguizamo has joined the cast of the upcoming searchlight thriller The Menu. The film, which is also being billed as a dark comedy, is “a psychological thriller set in the world of eccentric culinary culture, centering on a young couple who visit an exclusive restaurant on a remote island where an acclaimed chef has prepared a lavish tasting menu.”

Leguizamo joins the previously announced cast that includes Anya Taylor-Joy, who will portray one half of the young couple; Ralph Fiennes, who stars as the chef; as well as Nicholas Hoult and Hong Chau in unconfirmed roles.

Leguizamo is a great, dynamic actor, and I think he will be a great addition to this cast. The Menu is being produced by Adam McKay and Betsy Koch, and is currently in pre-production.
