Dan Stevens is teaming up with Harrison Ford on "Call of the Wild".
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the details of the actor's role are being kept under wraps.
The film, to be directed by Chris Sanders, stars Ford as John Thornton, a prospector braving the Yukon on the hunt for gold.
The big-budget film is being adapted by 20th Century Fox from the classic 1903 Jack London novel about the Klondike gold rush of the 1890s.
