There's a very good chance you won't even notice that John Goodman is in Luc Besson's bonkers new sci-fi until his alien character sneaks up and starts laying out some of those familiar deep, gravy tones of his. That's because the Kong Skull Island star is playing one of the army of CGI and mo-cap monsters in Besson's hyperactive future vision.

So far, the director has also kept the character firmly under wraps, though he has released lots of teases of some of the aliens he's furnished his worlds with, and if I was a betting man, I'd definitely say the jowly monstrosity pictured here is probably Goodman. He'd certainly match that sort of look and you can definitely imagine Goodman's voice coming out of that snout.

Still, even if it's not him, there's little chance the alien in question is actually going to look like the actor, given Besson's famed imagination.
