The film is building an all-star cast and Laurence Fishburne has just joined the cast in the unlikely role of the Editor-in-Chief of the Daily Planet: Perry White. He’ll be the first black actor to play the role.
He’s the second actor from The Matrix Trilogy to join the cast. Actor Harry Lennix (Commander Jason Lock in The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions) joined the cast to play General Swanwick.
