Maybe that was Elizabeth Banks who was involved in the casting. She’s the director, as well as a writer and a producer. She’s also cast as “Bosley”.

Define “great”. He was in Green Room, which I thought was a good movie. He did a great job in that movie being a creepy, evil Nazi group leader.

I recently caught a preview of the new Magnum. Definitely shows influence from director Justin Lin’s other works: very heavy on the action and Ms. Higgins really kicks ass. Jonathan supposedly had the same skill set but never really used it.
