There's now one more reason to check out the Ryan Gosling's How to Catch a Monster. In addition to featuring Mad Men star Christina Hendricks in the lead role, Doctor Who's Matt Smith is joining the cast of Gosling's directorial debut, Variety reports.

A story from August said the film “weaves elements of fantasy noir, and suspense into a modern-day fairytale. Set against the surreal dreamscape of a vanishing city, Billy, a single mother of two, is swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while her teenage son discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Both Billy and Bones must dive deep into the mystery, if their family is to survive.”

Eva Mendes will also appear in the project, which is expected to start filming this spring.
