They've cast Zaphod.

And it's Sam Rockwell.



Rockwell, if you need a bit of a refresher, was not only Guy in Galaxy Quest ("...and another crewmember!") but Chuck Barris (shown above) in the amazingly brilliant Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. This could work out. This could just work out.

Since all I've got as a visual right now is the horrible, horrible BBC version with the extremely fake head and the bad hair, this is a vast improvement. I'm so excited, I hope this movie turns out well. Yay!

Rockwell has a real habit of blending into his role. He does a great job of it. I couldn't believe he was the expendable extra (with no last name, so he knew he was doomed) in Galaxy Quest after I saw Confessions.

This'll be neat.
