Check out the newest Noah featurette that casts a focus on Tubal Cain and why his role in the story of Noah's Ark has been expanded.
Tubal Cain, descendant of Cain, the slayer of Abel, is in the Bible. He forged weapons and was all around one bad dude. But his prominence is about to be elevated even higher in Darren Aronofsky’s Noah, where he is played with villainous glee by Ray Winstone.
In Noah’s new featurette, Aronofsky, star Russell Crowe, and more explain the importance of turning Tubal Cain into the symbolic visage of all that is wrong with man. He also makes an apparently solid heavy who will attempt to take Noah’s ark by force.
The film looks like a definite change of pace for Aronofsky, who's best known for subtle dramas such as Requiem for a Dream, The Wrestler and Black Swan, but many consider The Fountain an epic and his magnum opus. Could Noah be the film that Aronofsky was born to make?
Noah, of course, is an adaptation of the famous biblical story "Noah and the Ark" in which a man named Noah must build an ark before a flood wipes out every living thing on the planet.
The film stars Russell Crowe (Noah), Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson, Anthony Hopkins, Logan Lerman, Douglas Booth, and Frank Langella. It's an all-star cast unlike any Aronofsky has ever had. Hopefully, this flood of talent will be a godsend for the picture.

I'm glad Noah co-stars at least two Jewish actors (Jennifer Connelly, whose mother is Jewish, and Logan Lerman, who is just Jewish).
