Actors David Oyelowo, David Gyasi, Wes Bentley, and Casey Affleck are among the line-up already set to star in the film. Damon will be playing a small role in the movie, which has already began filming. The 42-year-old actor, who recently starred in “Elysium” and in HBO’s “Behind the Candelabra”, is apparently poised to make his directorial debut with a movie called “A Foreigner”. Interstellar is scheduled for release in theatres on November 7, 2014. PTI
