Jon Watts is directing the film, which has put together a strong cast that includes Michael Keaton, Marisa Tomei, Zendaya, Robert Downey Jr., Donald Glover, Logan Marshall-Green and Tony Revolori.

Character details for Rice are being kept under wraps, as has been the case with many of the roles in the film, which is currently shooting in Atlanta. Marvel and Sony had no comment on Rice's casting.

Amy Pascal and Marvel's Kevin Feige are producing the reboot, which is slated to hit theaters July 7, 2017.

Rice attended the Cannes Film Festival in May with Shane Black's The Nice Guys, where the film had its world premiere. She played the daughter of Gosling's character, who tags along as they try to find a missing woman. The actress also wrapped work on indie Jasper Jones with stars Hugo Weaving and Toni Collette.

Rice is repped by WME and Catherine Poulton Management in Australia.
