The upcoming Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle movie just announced its English language voice cast, which includes Deadpool and Wolverine star Channing Tatum. The actor joins the returning voice cast from the anime series, along with new cast member Rebecca Wang.

According to Crunchyroll, Channing Tatum "discovered his love of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and anime through watching the series with his daughter" (via Variety). He is set to voice martial arts master Keizo, who taught the Soryu fighting style to Hakuji before he became the Upper Rank Three demon of the Twelve Kizuki, Akaza.

Audiences will get to enjoy the English dub from September 12. In the meantime, the movie is already breaking records, quickly becoming one of the highest-grossing movies of all time in Japan. Infinity Castle is following in the footsteps of its predecessor, Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train, which currently tops the list.

Directed by Haruo Sotozaki, the upcoming movie follows Tanjiro Kamado, who turns to a life of demon hunting with the Demon Slayer Corps after his sister was turned into one of the monsters. However, in Infinity Castle, Tanjiro faces his biggest challenge yet as he is plunged into a demon’s stronghold known as the Infinity Castle in a bid to save the head of the Corps. The first of an upcoming trilogy based on the Infinity Castle arc from the manga, the film follows the events of Demon Slayer season 4.
