Emma Thompson to fight aliens in Men in Black 3
02 October 2010
Yes, for real, Emma Thompson has agreed to star in Men In Black III. Although she's better known for her more serious work, Thompson will go big budget alongside returning stars Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith.
MIB III will be returning director Barry Sonnenfeld's first feature since 2006's Runaway Vacation. It will open in cinemas Summer, 2012.
Emma Thompson can be seen opposite Alan Rickman next Friday in The Song of Lunch, a dramatisation of Christopher Reid's narrative poem, telling the story of a book editor who, 15 years after their break-up, meets his former love for a nostalgic lunch at the Soho restaurant they used to frequent. As the wine flows, the couple rake over their failed relationship.
