The Newest Cast Member Of Peter Berg's BATTLESHIP Is...


Merrick here...


Rhiana (yeah, that Rhiana) will join the already-announced Alexander Skarsgard and Taylor Kitsch in Peter Berg's Navy -vs- aliens extravaganza BATTLESHIP. This will be her feature film debut.

So says THIS brief mention in Variety.

Really looking forward to seeing how this works out, and hope this role will further solidify Skarsgard in mainstream visibility. He's always good, and so much fun in TRUE BLOOD...
