Electricity In The Air

It's been a big week for X-Men Origins: Wolverine...Today the cast has grown by two more...

Variety has details:

Former Lost co-star Dominic Monaghan (pictured) and Daniel Henney have landed parts in the superhero prequel.

Monaghan plays Barnell, a mysterious former military ally of Wolverine's civilian persona named Logan with the power to harness energy and electricity.

Henney is playing Agent Zero, a member of the Weapon X. He's an expert mutant tracker with great marksman skills.

Production is already underway in New Zealand...With plans to move to Australia and New Orleans.

Aside from the TV gig Monaghan already had a large fanboy following with his stint as a Hobbit in The Lord of the Rings film trilogy...His role here sends his geek cred into the stratosphere for all time.

Henney appears in his first American flick...What a way to get one's acting feet wet.
