Brooklyn Decker Joins Battleship!
Tue, August 17, 2010 
Latino Review has just learned that ridiculously smokin' hot Victoria Secret and 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Model Brooklyn Decker has been cast in the role of "Sam" opposite Taylor Kitsch in Universals Battleship. The casting reminds me somewhat of Megan Fox in Transformers, or more recently Rosie Huntington in Transformers 3, not that I'm complaining.
It was also recently reported that the budget for Battleship is nearing a number exceeding 200 million. Apparently the studio had even considered pulling the plug on the project all together due to it being such a large budget tent-pole with no major star power being attached. But maybe the addition of Decker has won Universal execs over for now.
I'm personally not convinced the film was a great idea to begin with, especially not on such a large budget for an untested property. Then again it's possible Berg will prove all of us wrong.
Written by the Hoeber Brothers and to be directed by Peter Berg, Decker also joins Alexander Skarsgard and Rihanna.
Based on the Hasbro board game, the big budget film is about a naval fleet that must defend our planet from Alien Invaders.
The studio is targeting a May 18, 2012 release.
