Boardwalk Empire Star Shea Whigham Joins Terrence Malick’s Knight Of Cups

With Terrence Malick’s Knight Of Cups now finishing up production, we’ve learned of another great addition to the already massive ensemble cast. Boardwalk Empire star Shea Whigham shot scenes for the film with Christian Bale back in late June, and today we have some photos of Whigham’s time on the set.

The photos (which can be seen below) don’t really give us much new information, other than Whigham shot scenes with Bale and a toddler and that these photos where snapped early on in the production, back on June 27th.

Whigham has solidified himself in Hollywood over the past couple of years as a fantastic character actor, with his wonderful role on HBO’s Boardwalk Empire, as well as great supporting parts in films such as Robert Rodriguez’s Machete, Jeff Nichol’s Take Shelter and Oliver Stone’s Savages.

On top of that, Whigham also has a role in David O. Russell’s The Silver Linings Playbook later this year, alongside Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert De Niro.

With Malick’s next film (which was once titled Lawless) set to begin production in September, it will be interesting to see how many other stars show up on a Terrence Malick film set in the near future.

Knight Of Cups stars Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Cate Blanchett, Isabel Lucas, Wes Bently,  Freida Pinto, Teresa Palmer, Imogen Poots, Antonio Banderas,  Joe Manganiello, Joel Kinnaman, Jason Clarke and Shea Whigham, and is likely to be released in 2013.
