Total Recall: Jessica Biel, Eva Green, Kate Bosworth and Diane Kruger Vying for Roles


Back in January, Colin Farrell (Fright Night, Horrible Bosses) was cast as the main character, Douglas Quaid in director Len Wiseman‘s (Underworld, The World After) forthcoming, contemporized adaptation of the original Total Recall, which was based on Philip K. Dick‘s novelette, “We Can Remember It for You Wholesale”.

Now, Deadline reports that Kate Bosworth (Movie 43) and Diane Kruger (Special Forces) are reading for the role of Lori this week. The role of Lori was played by Sharon Stone in the original film. Lori is the dutiful wife who turns out to be a spy for the agency.

Jessica Biel (New Years Eve) and Eva Green (Dark Shadows) are reportedly being considered for the role of Melina. The character of Melina was portrayed by Rachel Ticotin in the original film, and helped Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Douglas Quaid go along with the Resistance.

Production on Total Recall is scheduled to begin in Toronto on May 15th.

Total Recall is slated to hit theaters on August 3rd, 2012.
