Mad Men star Jared Harris has been cast in Guy Ritchie's upcoming spy thriller, The  Man From U.N.C.L.E. The movie also stars Henry Cavill as agent Napoleon Solo and Armie Hammer as agent Illya Kuryakin. The two characters work for the mysterious United Network Command for Law and Enforcement (U.N.C.L.E.). Alicia Vikander and Hugh Grant also have roles in the film.

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. is based on the TV series which ran from 1964-68.  I've never seen the show, but the story follows "two agents of the United Network Command for Law Enforcement. With gadgets and their wits and charm, they fought the evil forces of Thrush."

There's a solidly awesome group of talented people involved with this movie so I'm sure it going to end up being a really good movie. I'm looking forward to seeing what Ritchie does with this.
