Jennifer Connelly (pictured inside) has signed on to star alongside Keanu Reeves in The Day the Earth Stood Still for 20th Century Fox, according to Variety. Scott Derrickson will direct the pic as his follow-up to The Exorcism of Emily Rose. Ryne Douglas Pearson wrote the screenplay; David Scarpa penned a recent draft. The story kicks off as aliens land on Earth carrying a message for all humans: Live in peace or be destroyed. Connelly is set to portray Helen Benson, the role Patricia Neal played in the 1951 original. Fox has set a December start date in Vancouver.

I LOVE Jennifer Connelly she is one of the best actresses out there(plus she´s one of the most beautiful women in the world) but i don´t want her to be in this movie, cause very likley it will be bad but since she´s in it, it might be good but probably not. I´ll decide when i see the trailer
