Thandiwe Newton and Steve Zahn have joined the cast of Anaconda, currently in production in Australia.

“The saints had very special visitors tonight! Jack Black, Thandiwe Newton, and Paul Rudd came in for dinner and a meet and greet with Cooper, Syrah & Norman. How cool is that!” the post read.

The trio are in Gold Coast filming the remake of Anaconda.

Westworld actor Newton and Silo star Zhan join Paul Rudd and Jack Black in the action comedy directed by Tom Gormican and co-written by Gormican and Kevin Etten.

The film is currently being filmed on the Gold Coast in Queensland.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Selton Mello will make his English-language debut in the film, and Ione Skye will also star.

The movie is a reimagining of Anaconda, the cult classic 1997 horror movie that featured Ice Cube, Jennifer Lopez, Jon Voight, Eric Stoltz, Jonathan Hyde and Owen Wilson.

The original film told the story of a documentary film crew in the Amazon rainforest led by a snake hunter who was hunting a legendary green anaconda.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, sources previously revealed the new version could see a group of friends head to the rainforest to remake a film from their younger years, only for giant snakes, violent criminals and natural disasters to risk their lives.

Black and Rudd are expected to portray either an actor whose Hollywood dreams are slipping further away from him or a director-turned-wedding videographer.

Sources told Deadline that the new story will "lean more toward comedy" but will feature the same snake from the first movie.

Anaconda grossed $US136 million ($A220 million) at the worldwide box office in 1997 from a $US45 million ($A73 million) budget.

While it was largely panned by critics, receiving a 41 per cent rating on movie and TV review site Rotten Tomatoes, the film spawned several sequels, including Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid and direct-to-video releases Anaconda 3: Offspring, Anacondas: Trail of Blood and Lake Placid vs. Anaconda, a 2015 crossover with crocodile franchise Lake Placid.
