Over the last couple years, Caleb Landry Jones as subtly worked his way up to “hey, it’s that guy!” status with memorable appearances in Get Out, Twin Peaks, and Thrill Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which was a nice step up after his X-Men: First Class character was unceremoniously killed off-screen. Now, get ready to say “hey, it’s that guy!” once again, because Variety is reporting that Jones has joined the cast of The Dead Don’t Die, the upcoming zombie movie from Jim Jarmusch.

We know barely anything about the project, but we previously reported that Bill Murray, Selena Gomez, Adam Driver, Tilda Swinton, Steve Buscemi, and Chloë Sevigny will star in it, with Murray, Driver, and Sevigny as cops. We don’t know who Jones will be playing, but if we had to guess, we’d say he’ll be some kind of off-putting creep (no offense to him, because he’s good at it, but he’s been playing a lot of off-putting creeps lately).
