Pierce Brosnan has been added to the cast of Netflix’s upcoming comedy Eurovision. The GoldenEye and Mamma Mia! star is set to play Erick Erickssong, the father of the film’s main character being played by Will Ferrell. Brosnan’s character is also apparently known as the “most handsome man in Iceland,” which makes sense, since Brosnan has long been the most handsome man in whatever room he happens to be in at that moment. Brosnan’s casting announcement in Deadline also offered a few more details about the film, which will follow Ferrell and Rachel McAdams as struggling Icelandic musicians Lars Erickssong and Sigrit Ericksdottir. Ferrell is also writing the film with Andrew Steele, with Wedding Crashers’s David Dobkin directing and Adam McKay executive-producing.
