By Kellvin Chavez on February 27, 2006
Director Roland Emmerich has set Steven Strait and Camilla Belle to star in "10,000 B.C.," the period epic drama that will begin shooting April 24 for a summer 2007 tentpole for Warner Bros.
The film provides a big opportunity for two 19-year-old thesps. After leads in "Sky High" and "Undiscovered," Strait is currently starring for Renny Harlin in the Screen Gems/Lakeshore thriller "The Covenant." Belle just starred in the remake of "A Stranger Calls" and first gained notice starring alongside Daniel Day-Lewis in the Rebecca Miller-directed "The Ballad of Jack and Rose."
Strait will play a youngster far down in the pecking order of a primitive tribe that survives by hunting migrating mammoth. He pines for a princess well above his station. When the tribe's hunters are enslaved and the princess kidnapped, the boy realizes his tribe is headed for extinction unless he takes action.
Film will shoot in South Africa and Namibia.
