Jason Statham and Leelee Sobieski have been cast in the film adaptation of the video game Dungeon Siege.
The Hollywood Reporter says Statham will play the hero, Farmer, and Sobieski will play the daughter of court sorcerer Merrick, played by John Rhys Davies.
Uwe Boll is directing with a $60 million budget and he is said to be looking for a 2006 summer release.
The game followed the adventures of Farmer as he goes from being a simply man to a prince; set in a fantasy world where war rages and heroic deeds await Farmer sets out to avenge his murdered son and rescue his kidnapped wife.
Also cast are Ron Perlman as Norick, Matthew Lillard as Duke Fallow; Burt Reynolds as King Konreid; and Kristanna Loken (Loken starred in Boll's last film, BloodRayne) as Elora, an magical tree-like creature who aids Farmer.
Filming is due to start this weekend in Vancouver.
