Weaver Introduced To Blomkamp's "Chappie'

Sigourney Weaver has joined the cast of Neill Blomkamp's sci-fi feature "Chappie" according to Heat Vision.


The film is based on “Tetra Vaal” a short film about a robot police force patrolling the slums of South Africa.

Sharlto Copley would voice the police robot while Dev Patel will play a man in the impoverished town. Hugh Jackman Eugene Khumbanyiwa and Elysium’s Jose Pablo Cantillo also star.

Described as a science fiction comedy, Chappie is based on an original concept thought up by Blomkamp and his wife, District 9 co-writer Terri Tatchell.

Blomkamp will also produce the film with Simon Kinberg.

Production has just begun in Johannesburg, South Africa.
