A Post-Apocalyptic thriller for Warner Bros
Allen and Albert Hughes (“From Hell”) will direct a post-apocalyptic thriller called “Book of Eli” for Jeffy Robinov and the Warners. The beard, Joel Silver, is also on board as a producer.
Scripted by Gary Whitta, the drama, says Variety, revolves around a lone hero who fights his way across the wasteland of post-apocalyptic America. He’s the protector of a sacred book that may hold the key to saving human.
The directing duo has apparently been turning down scripts aplenty the last couple of years. “Eli” caught their attention, as did “The Ice Man,” a fact-based film about Richard Kuklinski, a serial killer who found his calling as a Mafia hitman.
Expect a name to be cast in the lead role for “Eli”.
