The Book of Eli - What a feeling. Jennifer Beals joins the cast

Jennifer Beals (Flashdance, Rodger Dodger, The L Word) has jumped on board The Book of Eli, the Denzel Washington-starring post apocalyptic action thriller. Albert and Allen Hughes are directing it for Warner Bros. and Alcon Entertainment.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the script was written by Gary Whitta with a rewrite by Anthony Peckham, and 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 humanity. Gary Oldman and Mila Kunis are also in the cast.

Beals will play Oldman's sexual prize and Kunis' mother, a blind woman doing anything she can to protect her child.
