Aaron Eckhart signs for Battle: Los Angeles

Can he save the city?

Nov 17th 2008

Fresh from his tortured, villainous turn in The Dark Knight, Aaron Eckhart is returning to the side of good for Battle: Los Angeles.

Eckhart has signed on to play the leader of a Marine platoon who fight an evil alien army trying to destroy Hollywood, Santa Monica, and, we’ll say, ice cream?

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning’s director Jonathan Liebesman is at the helm, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Neal Moritz producing

With Neal Moritz as its producer, we expect a loud, visceral but probably very silly action epic. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

The film has yet to set a start date, but if the fires raging in areas around LA get any bigger, the production won’t have to look far for scorched terrain.
