Parker Posey has joined the cast of Lost In Space, Netflix’s remake of sci-fi master Irwin Allen’s 1965 cult TV classic.
The Netflix reboot is scheduled to debut in 2018. The new series hints at the original CBS series, revolving around the Robinson family, which is forced to come together in a time of crisis. Stranded light years from their intended destination, the Robinsons find themselves battling a strange new alien environment and their own personal demons.
Posey will play Dr. Smith in notable gender swap for the character, who was originally portrayed as a man; the late Jonathan Harris in the original series while English actor Gary Oldman played the part in the show’s 1998 film adaptation.
