Former Chuck Star Joins The Predator Cast

Shane Black‘s Predator reboot began production this week, and the director had an all-star cast to work with from day one.

Wednesday afternoon, that cast just got even more talented. The Hollywood Reporter that a star of the beloved TV series Chuck has been added to the cast.

Yvonne Strahovski, who starred as Sarah Walker on all five seasons of the show, has now officially joined The Predator.

The report stated that Strahovski would play the mother of Jacob Tremblay’s character. The young boy is autistic, and his unique ability with languages draws him into the battle versus the lethal aliens.

Boyd Holbrook is playing Tremblay’s father, but he and Strahovski’s character have been divorced for some time now.

While Chuck is Strahovski’s most notable role, she has been in quite a few memorable TV shows. The actress was featured in a number of episodes of Dexter, as well as the 24 mini-series, Live Another Day. She also has a starring role in The Handmaid’s Tale, which is set to debut its first season on Hulu later this year.

The Predator opens in theaters on Feb. 9, 2018.
