Actor Danny Huston (X-Men Origins: Wolverine) has joined the cast of director Simon West’s (When a Stranger Calls) upcoming action-thriller Medallion. The Playlist reports that Huston will join Nicolas Cage in the flick, which centers on a former master thief (Cage) who has only a few hours to find his daughter when she is kidnapped and locked in the trunk of a New York medallion taxi cab. Malin Akerman will portray an ex-girlfriend of Cage’s who teams up with him to find his daughter. The Taken-esque flick has a script from David Guggenheim (Safe House) and marks the re-teaming of Cage and West after their previous collaboration on Con Air.

Con Air was fantastic B movie fun. I hope he gets the intense Nic Cage performance out of him. My hopes are not up high for it though. When A Stranger Calls was absolutely atrocious.
the movie no longer takes place in New York…

This looks like it’ll be a rigorous exercise in face palming considering the three actors listed here.
