Evangeline Lilly Joining Hugh Jackman In The Robot-Boxing Drama ‘Red Steel’

Evangeline Lilly (Lost) sure isn’t taking any off time from work despite the conclusion of “Lost.” She and Anthony Mackie (The Hurt Locker) will join Huge Jackman (Wolverine Origins, X-Men) in Shawn Levy’s new sci-fi drama involving robot-boxing called “Red Steel.”

Hugh Jackman stars as a former boxer who reunites with his estranged son (Dakota Goyo) to train a robot for the robot boxing championship. It’s a sci-fi drama that takes place either in the future or in an alternate world where battling robots is more awesome than MMA and the UFC.

Mackie will play a boxing promoter while Lilly will play a friend of Jackman’s character.

Shooting for “Red Steel” will begin this June and the film has a tentative November 18, 2011 release date.
