The Mr Young star will appear as Stilson in the adaptation of Orson Scott Card's classic novel, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Stilson is a classmate and rival to the lead character Ender, who will be played by Hugo star Asa Butterfield in the movie.
Sir Ben Kingsley and Hailee Steinfeld are said to be in talks to appear in the film, with Harrison Ford also being sought for a role.
Ender's Game is set in a future when child prodigies are trained to be soldiers in a war against a hostile alien race.
Several books in the series have been adapted into graphic novels by Marvel Comics.
Ender's Game is scheduled to begin shooting early next year for its March 2013 release.
