Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. John Cusack wants to play in Roland Emmerich's big ol' exploding toybox. And he's not alone. It looks like Chiwetel Ejiofor is also in talks to join him in the end of the world flick 2012. A little more has leaked out about the flick, too, kind of confirming the Mayan calender aspect of it and that it opens with the world as we know it coming to an end. The flick follows the survivors.

You know, if it's an end of the world movie... that's the kind of flick I like seeing from people like Emmerich. That's playing to his strengths and if he's able to keep this cast (ie if the strike doesn't fuck up the movie) then those are two actors I trust to be able to direct themselves while Roland is off playing with the effects. You?
