The Borderlands movie has cast bodybuilder/actor Olivier Richters to play a familiar figure from the video games.

According to THR, Richters will play the role of Krom, the ruler of bandits that control the planet Pandora. Krom appeared in the original Borderlands game, where the character was voiced by Oliver Tull and served as one of many boss figures players could fight and defeat.

Starting his career as a 7-foot-2 bodybuilder, Richters embarked on his first forays into acting with the short film Nailed and a one-episode appearance on Gangs of London. He then scored his first major feature film role with the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe title Black Widow. Additional projects on the horizon for Richters beyond Borderlands include The Electrical Life of Louis Wan and The King's Man.

Richters is one of many actors to recently join the cast of video game adaptation, which just kicked off principal photography. Other performers newly added to the project include Hayley Bennett, Florian Munteanu and Édgar Ramirez.

Directed by Eli Roth, Borderlands stars Kevin Hart, Cate Blanchett, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jack Black, Florian Munteanu, Arianna Greenblatt, Haley Bennett, Édgar Ramirez and Olivier Richters. The film has yet to receive a release date.
