Hollywood’s go-to game girl Milla Jovovich stars in Clock Tower? [Update]

You already knew that Human/Capcom’s Clock Tower game is making its way to the big screen, and we’ve heard a bit about the cast of the movie. Now we hear that Milla Jovovich (Resident Evil films, Fifth Element) has been cast in this film adaptation of the survival horror series.

Jovovich will play Alyssa Barron, whom we gather is the protaginst of the Clock Tower film. Since the film is mostly centered around the game Clock Tower II, poor Alyssa will find herself stuck in a mental institution, probably with multiple personality disorder. Or worse.

Bloody-Disgusting says that shooting is scheduled for November in Los Angeles.

Doesn’t the casting of Jovovich put your hopes for the film somewhere in the range of the Resident Evil movies? Is that a good thing?

[Update: it seems that Jovovich has denied her involvement via an official fansite. Let’s hold this one as a rumor for now.]
