TheWrap:

John Cusack will star opposite Rainn Wilson and Sasha Lane on “Sharp Objects" author Gillian Flynn’s upcoming Amazon series “Utopia."

Cusack will play Dr. Kevin Christie. Charismatic and media-savvy, with a brilliant biotech mind and a philanthropic outlook, Christie altruistically wants to change the world through science.

“Utopia" follows a group of young adults who meet online, and “are mercilessly hunted by a shadowy deep state organization after they come in to possession of a near-mythical cult underground graphic novel — they discover the conspiracy theories in the comic’s pages may actually be real and are forced into the dangerous, unique and ironic position of saving the world.“

This cast keeps kicking ass — now if only there was a legal way for me to watch the UK original in the States.
