When you need a mad scientist, you really can't go wrong with somebody who's had some experience with Jekyll and Hyde.

Richard E. Grant, who has also appeared in Dig, Girls, and Doctor Who, will play an as-yet-unidentified villainous mad scientist in the forthcoming, as-yet-untitled sequel to James Mangold's The Wolverine, THR reports.

Mangold will direct the film, which will also star Sir Patrick Stewart as Professor X and Boyd Holbrook as the film's central villain.

The film is set to hit theaters on March 3, 2017.
