Trailer of the Week: “The Book of Eli”
Denzel Washington survives the Apocalypse in The Book of Eli
Move over Mel Gibson–Denzel Washington is our newest post-apocalyptic Road Warrior. In the upcoming thriller The Book of Eli, the actor stars as Eli, a one-man army marching through what’s left of America after a devastating war has reduced much of the country to ruin. Before you say, “Hey, that sounds just like The Road!,” which we previewed in this space last week, there is one major difference between that film and this one and it has to do with the titular tome. Apparently, Eli is carrying a book that holds the secret to rescuing the human race from extinction. Also unlike The Road, The Book of Eli appears to be a rock ‘em sock ‘em action movie, with Denzel taking on all comers with nifty martial arts moves and a bow and arrow. The film marks the return of the long-absent filmmaking team The Hughes Brothers (best known for their blistering debut film, Menace II Society), who haven’t made a flick together since 2001’s From Hell. Starring alongside Washington are Gary Oldman, Malcolm McDowell and Mila Kunis. Look for The Book of Eli in theaters on January 15, 2010.

The Hughes brothers are back … man i still watch Dead presidents any chance i get , now they got Denzel i cant wait to see this.
Hmmm i might have to check that out!!
I love post apoctalyptic thrillers…this looks like its going to be what Iam Legends second half should of been. Denzel is probably the greatest male (black) actor to ever be in movies. Im hyped and very few movies get me excited anymore but I will definetly see this when it comes out.
When reading this article I “initially” thought about I Am Legend (starring Will Smith). However, when watching this preview I see it is a different storyline. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Denzel Washington. He and John Travolta are my favorite male actors (was so glad to see them collaborate on “The Taking of Pelham…”). Washington is an amazing actor/individual. Also The Hughes Brothers are very talented & glad to see them working again. I will surely go see this one
.
