Although there were rumours about the Fathom role which I posted about around 6 months ago (link), it appears that Megan is now confirmed for the Fathom project in which she will play Aspen. In addition to starring in the film, she will also be involved in the development as well.

In addition to that news, according to the HollywoodReporter.com, Megan is close to signing on to star in movie called Jonah Hex:

Fox is in final negotiations to star opposite Josh Brolin and John Malkovich in “Jonah Hex,” Warner Bros.’ action Western based on the DC Comics character. She also is attached to star and develop “Fathom,” Fox Atomic’s comic book-based underwater adventure.

In “Hex,” being directed by Jimmy Hayward, Fox will play Leila, a gun-wielding beauty and love interest of Hex (Brolin), a scarred bounty hunter tracking a voodoo practitioner (Malkovich) who wants to raise an army of undead to liberate the South.

The movie is prepping for a shoot in April, with Mad Chance’s Andrew Lazar and Weed Road’s Akiva Goldsman producing.

This is great news and it means we’ll be seeing Megan in more big projects over the next couple of years!
