Eddie Izzard joins Valkyrie

By Matt Holmes / June 25, 2011

Eddie Izzard who had a fun role in Ocean's Thirteen and who looks absolutely wacky as hell in the upcoming 60's movie Across the Universe, has joined the cast of Bryan Singer's WWI movie Valkyrie.

In the film, German generals hatch a scheme to assassinate Adolph Hitler at the height of WWII. Valkyrie is based on actual events.

Can you imagine if he has been cast as Hitler himself? I'm telling ya he could do it and would be convincing at it. Love the sound of this movie, love the awesome cast Singer has put together. source - variety
