Aussie Sea Man

Ron Howard must have loved working with Chris Hemsworth in the upcoming Rush (and who wouldn’t, having to look at that brick house all day every day for a few months...).

So much so that the director’s ready to do it all over again.

Howard will reunite with the sexy Aussie – who is like, everything in the new Esquire – for the adaptation of Nathaniel Philbrick’s In the Heart of the Sea, the story of the real-life 1819 harrowing ordeal of the Essex whale ship that went on to inspire Moby Dick.

Meanwhile, Ben Whishaw has recently the a cast that includes Cillian Murphy, Brendan Gleeson, and The Impossible’s Tom Holland, in the role of Herman Melville.

Update: Whishaw is actually the one who will be portraying Melville.
