It’s been shooting in Australia for weeks already, but director Brad Peyton and the team behind earthquake action adventure San Andreas have only now seen fit to announce that Kylie Minogue is joining the film{
San Andreas already features Dwayne Johnson as a special-ops fire rescue operative who must team up with his ex-wife (Carla Gugino) to make the dangerous trip from Los Angeles to San Francisco to rescue their daughter (Alexandra Daddario) when a massive earthquake rocks California.
Minogue, who has pulled back from her acting career in recent years to focus on music (and to be a judge on the UK version of The Voice), still makes time for the occasional movie, and was last seen on the big screen in the barnstormingly good, utterly baffling Holy Motors. Details about her role in San Andreas have yet to be released, but we do know she’s joining a cast that also includes Ioan Gruffudd, Archie Panjabi and Matt Gerald.
In true Rock style, Johnson has been keeping his followers up to date with his experiences on the set, including a recent shot of him working on one of the big sequences with Peyton.
San Andreas will rumble into UK cinemas on June 5, 2015.
