London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art graduate starring in upcoming Tarzan

tarzan movie actor

Charles Babalola, a former St Bonaventure’s pupil finishing his program at London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, has just scored a supporting role in the upcoming Tarzan movie. The lucky break came during the last week of school, when an agent pushed him for the audition. Babalola already visited Warner Bros Studios to have his costumed fitted. He also met with David Yates, director of the previous four Harry Potter movies, who personally offered him the role in the newest Tarzan.

The filming of the movie has already begun, but young actor cannot reveal much at this point. Charles expressed his excitement over this “biggest break” he has ever had, as well as a number of “surreal” experiences such as chatting with Samuel L Jackson. He has also met Alexander Skarsgård and Margot Robbie.

The movie is scheduled to release in 2016.

Synopsis for the next Tarzan revealed!

The next iteration of the King of the Jungle movie, produced by Warner Brothers and directed by David Yayes known for his work on Harry Potter, is well underway. After some holdbacks such as casting issues or scheduling problems, the new title is finally moving forward, and new details about the shoot are emerging. Warner Borthers has released a synopsis in a press release this week:

It has been years since the man once known as Tarzan (Skarsgård) left the jungles of Africa behind for a gentrified life as John Clayton III, Lord Greystoke, with his beloved wife, Jane (Robbie) at his side. Now, he has been invited back to the Congo to serve as a trade emissary of Parliament, unaware that he is a pawn in a deadly convergence of greed and revenge, masterminded by the Belgian, Captain Leon Rom (Waltz). But those behind the murderous plot have no idea what they are about to unleash.

If the short synopsis is anything to go by, the next Tarzan will be taking the classic story but putting some new, modern spins on it.
