Daniel Craig has boarded Warner Bros. Pictures' "Invasion," directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel says The Hollywood Reporter. Joel Silver is producing the Nicole Kidman sci-fi thriller began as a remake of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", but the script is being seen as different enough to tag it as an 'original'.

The story is set after a mysterious epidemic alters the behavior of human beings, a Washington psychiatrist (Kidman) discovers that its origins are extraterrestrial. She must fight to protect her son, who might hold the key to stopping the invasion.

Craig plays Kidman's colleague and love interest who teams up with her to help save her son from being overtaken by the aliens. Lensing begins next month.

Thanks to 'Willow'.
