Actress Mila Kunis has signed to the cast of “The Book of Eli” according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Albert and Allen Hughes will direct “Eli” which has signed actor Denzel Washington for the lead role.
The script, by Gary Whitta and a rewrite by Anthony Peckham, centers on a lone hero named Eli (Washington) who must fight his way across the wasteland of a near-future America to protect a sacred book that might hold the key to saving the future of humanity.
Kunis plays a woman named Solara; at first enlisted to betray Eli, she ultimately joins him in his quest.
Principal photography begins in February in New Mexico.
