Toby Stephens Cast in "Lost in Space" for Netflix


How is this going to work exactly? Anyone heard? Is he shooting LiS as soon as Sails ends or are they shooting back-to-back or what? This is the last season for Sails right?

I believe they are already finished shooting on the final season of Black Sails. Short teaser trailers are available online and it looks great. I see where Toby S is currently filming another sea drama called 'Hunter Killer' with Gerard Butler and Gary Oldman. The on set photos from London and Bulgaria look quite interesting. Coincidentally, the boy who willl be co-starring with Toby in 'Lost in Space' also features as Gerard Butler's son in 'The Headhunter's Calling' which was recently screened at TIFF. His name is Maxwell Jenkins and this kid is a cutie and already on the way up, his next movie to co-star Robert De Niro.

BTW how about Ben Kingsley as Dr Smith in this remake of 'Lost in Space'? He's a great actor and has worked with Toby Stephens before. I just hope the robot is as entertaining as in the original TV series.

As long as it's a decent practical f/x as opposed to something cheesey. The original robot was made like 60 years ago and he still looks great imo.
