Eric Forman is going sci-fi thanks to Christopher Nolan. According to a report in Deadline, the That 70s Show star is in talks to snag a supporting role in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming science fiction thriller Interstellar.

Topher Grace is in talks for a supporting role in the Chris Nolan-directed Interstellar for Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. He joins Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain and Michael Caine in a film that Nolan and Emma Thomas are producing with Lynda Obst, with Jordan Goldberg exec producing.

The role could finally make a legitimate movie star out of Grace, who is still trying to live down and break free from the chains of being Eric Foreman on That 70s Show. So far only Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher have emerged from the shadow of the hit TV Show but Grace has to be credited with trying very hard.

He’s dabbled in the romance movie pool but he’s taken drastic roles in Traffic, Spider-Man 3 and Predators to try and branch out as an actor. Snagging a supporting role in Interstellar could end up making him into a star in Hollywood much like it did for Joseph Gordon-Levitt who has entirely moved away from his role on 3rd Rock From the Sun in similar fashion.

Grace’s role in Interstellar is not yet known but his name just adds to mountain of reasons everyone can’t wait for this film to get released.
