Frank Langella will join the cast of Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps, sequel to Oliver Stone’s Wall Street, which Stone will also direct for 20th Century Fox.

Shia LaBeouf stars along with Michael Douglas, who’ll reprise his Gordon Gekko role.  Josh Brolin is apparently interested in a part as well.

Langella is close to signing a deal to play Lewis Zabel, an old-time broker who mentors LaBeouf’s character, a young Wall Street broker. The mentor’s fate plays a major part in the film’s story.

Langella is noted for his recent Oscar-nominated turn as Richard Nixon in Frost/Nixon in 2008.

Frost/Nixon, director Ron Howard’s adaptation of the play about the historic 1977 televised interview between Richard Nixon (Frank Langella) and journalist David Frost (The Queen’s Michael Sheen), could bring the holiday season with drama and speculation of award-winning two stars. Entertainment Weekly supplied the exclusive online unveiling of the film’s poster. (Frost/Nixon opens in some locations on Dec. 5, and nationwide on Dec. 25.)
