After the lead role in The Mummy, actress Sofia Boutella has bagged another big project. She is all set to star opposite Michael B Jordan and Michael Shannon in HBO's film adaptation of the novel "Fahrenheit 451." Based on Ray Bradbury's classic novel, the TV film depicts a future where the media is an opiate, history is outlawed, and "firemen" burn books. Ramin Bahrani will be directing this one, reported Deadline.

Jordan will play Montag, a young fireman who forsakes his world, battles his mentor, and struggles to regain his humanity. Shannon will play Beatty, Montag's fireman captain and mentor and Boutella will essay the role of Clarisse, an informant caught between the competing interests of Montag and Beatty.

Interestingly, Bradbury's book has been adapted into movies several times before.
