"American Gangster" co-star Cuba Gooding Jr. has signed to star in John Carter's action thriller The Way of War, playing a paramilitary operative who goes on a rampage after discovering a war conspiracy. The Oscar-Winning Actor for “Jerry Maguire” and who has also appeared in so many other great films such as Daddy Day Camp, Dirty, A Dairy Tale, Home on the Range and my all time favorite Boat Trip, is currently working on 4 movies for 2008. . "With his intensity and ability to take a character to the edge, the part is tailor-made for Cuba, and we're excited to have him aboard," says Nick Thurlow, one of three executive producers on the project. "John Carter and Scott Schafer have crafted a political thriller with deep resonance for our times." Gooding, Jr. stars as Nicky Barnes in "American Gangster" in theatres today. Well maybe he can take his kids to Daddy Day Camp where he’ll get Dirty and tell the kids A Dairy Tale until he can get back Home on the Range.
