Bobby Cannavale’s red-hot career just got hotter…

The 42-year-old half-Cuban American actor has been cast in Woody Allen’s upcoming ensemble comedy.

Details about Allen’s follow-up project to To Rome with Love, which stars Penelope Cruz, haven’t been released yet. But Cannavale will join Cate Blanchett, Bradley Cooper and Alec Baldwin in the film.

Cannavale was most recently cast in the latest season of HBO’s Emmy-winning drama series Boardwalk Empire. And the award-winning actor will star in the Broadway revival of The Big Knife, which opens next April.

Cannavale most recently completed the Jeffrey Friedman–Rob Epstein-directed Lovelace, which stars Amanda Seyfried as adult film star Linda Lovelace.
