It looks like Universal Pictures didn't think their cast for Public Enemies wasn't ensemble enough.
Billy Crudup for Public Enemies
Billy Crudup has been picked up to join Michael Mann's Public Enemies as FBI director J. Edgar Hoover.
Described as a crime drama, Public Enemies features a cast that includes Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Marion Cotillard.
Mann has also cast Stephen Lang to play Winstead, the leader of the Texas Rangers who joins the manhunt for John Dillinger and his gang. Bale will play Melvin Purvis, the legendary FBI agent who led the manhunt for John Dillinger. Depp is playing Dillinger.
Crudup last starred in the romantic comedy Dedication.
