Washington Set for ‘Book of Eli’
It was just announced today that Denzel Washington is set to star in Book of Eli, a post-apocalyptic drama to be directed by Allen and Albert Hughes.
Washington plays a lone hero in a not-too-distant apocalyptic future. He must fight across America to bring knowledge to society that is the key to its redemption.
Gary Whitta wrote the script, and Anthony Peckham did the rewrite.
Filming begins in January.
Book makes the Hughes brothers first drama since 2001′s “From Hell.”

With a new Final Directors Version about to be released and the original having screened throughout on TV and DVD what is the point? Denzel Washington?
