"I have long admired Lee's work and a true fan since he blew me away with Once Were Warriors,” said Brody in a statement. “When Lee approached me to play the role of Charles V - a man with great power, and greater flaws - whose demons took his empire to the brink - I felt compelled to accept the challenge.” Brody last worked with Corson on Paul Haggis' Third Person, which Sony Pictures Classics is bowing in the U.S. on June 27.
