As with any Terrence Malick film, a signal goes out in Hollywood and the actors pour on to the set. With his latest kicking off production in Austin, we’ve got the first new addition today. After bringing set photos of both Ryan Gosling and Rooney Mara, as well as Natalie Portman, Just Jared has a few more which reveal a new star.

Holly Hunter can be spotted next to Portman in the photos, but of course, no hint as to what her role may be. The Oscar-winning actress has taken it a bit light in terms of features in recent years, but recently popped up in the drama Won’t Back Down. Unless she (inevitably) gets cut from the final version, she’ll be seen alongside Cate Blanchett and Christian Bale in the film about “two intersecting love triangles,” which tells a “story of sexual obsession and betrayal set against the music scene in Austin, Texas.” Check out the photos above and below, featuring a blonde Portman.
