The seductive hearthrob of True Blood, Alexander Skarsgard will be joining the cast of Battleship as a naval officer set to throw his co-ordinates in on the Aliens vs Navy adaptation of the classic board game.
Skarsgard is taking to the high seas for the board game adaptation.
Skarsgård will be playing Kitsch’s brother, a “a straight and narrow naval officer whom Kitsch, a wildly spirited naval officer, idolizes.”
I am still a little puzzled by the inclusion of aliens. It reminds me of that scene in Bolt when the birds are pitching the idea to step up Bolt’s show a notch. Wait for it… Aliens!
But considering there is no plot to speak of in the board game, they could go in any direction they wanted and this is as good as any. And it will result in a new version of the game to sell in stores that will have one side of the board with traditional naval vessels, and the other side with an equally pegged out armada of alien watercraft as well.
Skarsgard should do well in the role. As if women needed to see him in uniform to get more aroused by his presence.
