LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18 (UPI) -- Angelina Jolie will star as the Queen of Darkness in director Robert Zemeckis' big screen adaptation of "Beowulf."

Ray Winstone will play Beowulf and Crispin Glover will be the monster Grendel in the epic, which will be put together with the same performance-capture technology Zemeckis used in "The Polar Express," the Hollywood Reporter said.

The cast also includes Anthony Hopkins, Robin Wright Penn and John Malkovich.

"Beowulf" is scheduled for a 2007 release.
