Nolan Adds John Lithgow and Ellen Burstyn to INTERSTELLAR Cast List

Just when the Interstellar cast is looking as stacked as it could possibly be, nerd-god Christopher Nolan goes and adds John Lithgow (Rise of the Planet of the Apes) and Ellen Burstyn (Requiem for a Dream) to his already massive cast.
