From Abraham Lincoln, to the Archangel Michael, actor Benjamin Walker is having one hell of a run. The star of the upcoming film Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter has, according to Deadline, joined the cast of the equally intriguing Paradise Lost.

Director Alex Proyas revealed that Walker will join the film’s star, Bradley Cooper, in Paradise Lost, which takes on the legendary Milton story that follows the battle between Michael and Cooper’s Lucifer. The film shoots this January, and will have a script worked on by Stuart Hazeldine, Lawrence Kasdan, and with a recent draft from Ryan Condal.

Apparently the film will feature three major battles, set in Heaven, Hell, and Eden, and will look at the evolution of Lucifer, and, according to Proyas, “the birth of evil.” Overall, I think this sounds like a really interesting project, and with this cast, it’s definitely going to be something to keep an eye on.
