According to the Hollywood Reporter, the four-time Oscar nominee has been signed up to play 'The Man in Black', described as the distillation of pure villainy into one man in the premium cable network's adaptation of the sci-fi hit.

The 'Man on a Ledge' star will join Anthony Hopkins, Evan Rachel Wood, Jeffrey Wright, Rodrigo Santoro, Shannon Woodward, James Marsden, Kyle Bornheimer and more in the drama inspired by Michael Crichton's 1973 feature film.

J.J. Abrams will produce the drama which is said to be a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the future of sin.
