This has to be the best casting news since God knows when. Two of the sexiest men in the industry are pairing up to resurrect Shakespeare’s most lauded piece of art – Othello.
Daniel Craig, who recently dominated headlines due to his public declaration that he is done roaming the world as James Bond (he was kidding of course), will play the role of Iago, while Oyelowo, fresh off his Oscar-worthy turn as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr in the critically-acclaimed and Oscar-nominated Selma, will step into the role of Othello.
