Frances McDormand Will Provide The Voice Of God In ‘Good Omens’, Noomi Rapace Joins ‘Jack Ryan’ [Comic-Con 2018]

Plus, Noomi Rapace (Prometheus) has joined the cast of Jack Ryan, the action-packed Tom Clancy adaptation that has John Krasinski in the lead role.
Michael Sheen and David Tennant lead the star-studded adaptation of Gaiman and Pratchett’s novel, with Jon Hamm, Nick Offerman, Miranda Richardson, and more filling out the ensemble cast. I haven’t read the book myself, but it seems pretty wild. Here’s the official synopsis for the adaptation:
Meanwhile, Noomi Rapace has joined Jack Ryan in the role of Harriet “Harry” Baumann, a highly capable, sharply intelligent, and intoxicatingly charming BND agent (she works for Germany’s Secret Intelligence). As a series regular, Rapace will cross paths with Krasinski’s Jack Ryan as the spy show’s action unfolds in South America.
Rapace broke out with her role as Lisbeth Salander in the original The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo movies, and went on to be cast in high-profile films like Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, Prometheus, and Netflix’s fantasy actioner Bright. She’s played a number of roles that have given her the chance to show off her physicality, but the bit about her character being “intoxicatingly charming” has me excited to see her work a different set of acting muscles here.
