Keith Jardine Joins 'Vice'

Hey there --

Some late Wednesday/early Thursday (depending on your timezone) news from the production of Inherent Vice, thanks to an attentive follower (@mattjhenson): MMA star-turned-film and television actor Keith Jardine will be playing the role of Puck Beaverton for PTA & co. in the movie.

As shooting enters the homestretch, many names, faces, reports are being tossed around with regards to what the final cast of the movie will look like. This is largely due to an IMDb page that seemingly grows bigger and bigger every hour of every day. We generally hesitate to use this page as our sole source, as it is surprisingly easy to manipulate and/or distort information of a production there, but Mr. Jardine was kind enough to personally corroborate his involvement in the project from his own twitter account.

The film is scheduled to wrap its LA unit within the next couple days. Regardless of whether it will move on to other locations (we don't mean to imply it will -- remember The Master was able to make Northern California look like England), or need to extend to its LA schedule a bit, it seems we will know sooner rather than later where the final casting has landed.

In the meantime, just think: each passing day is bringing us that much closer to a brand new motion picture from Paul Thomas Anderson.

"The Master" is now available on Blu-ray and DVD.
