Ben Kingsley joins "Ender's Game" as Mazer Rackham (Reuters)

LOS ANGELES, Jan 31 (TheWrap.com) ? Ben Kingsley will join Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield in "Ender's Game," the film's producers said on Tuesday.

The Oscar-winning actor will play war hero Mazer Rackham in the adaptation of Orson Scott Card's best-selling novel for Summit Entertainment.

It marks a reunion of sorts for Kingsley, who recently starred alongside Butterfield in Martin Scorsese's "Hugo."

"Ender's Game" is a futuristic adventure about a young man who is drafted by the military to help save the human race.

In addition, Brandon Soo Hoo ("Tropic Thunder") will play a character named Fly Molo. Hailee Steinfeld ("True Grit") and Abigail Breslin ("Little Miss Sunshine") have previously been announced as part of the cast.

Gavin Hood ("X-Men Origins: Wolverine") will write and direct the movie. K/O Paper Products, OddLot Entertainment and Digital Domain are production partners on the film. Summit Entertainment is co-financing and will release the film domestically March 15, 2013.

Production begins next month in New Orleans.
