Knockouts Jessica Biel (Texas Chainsaw Massacre) and Kate Beckinsale (Underworld) have officially been cast as the female leads in Sony Pictures remake of director Paul Verhoeven’s 1990 sci-fi classic Total Recall. They will play prostitute/resistance fighter Melina and double-crosser Lori Quaid, respectively.

The reboot is directed by Len Wiseman and finds Colin Farrell stepping into Arnold Schwarzenegger’s shoes as protagonist Doug Quaid, a factory worker who starts to believe he’s a spy when his real memories and those he purchased from an implanting company start to blur together.

Total Recall is set to roll camera next Monday. Costars include Bryan Cranston (“Breaking Bad”) as politico villain Vilos Cohaagen, Bill Nighy (Pirates of the Caribbean) as resistance leader Quatto, and Ethan Hawk (Daybreakers) in an undisclosed cameo.

Biel made her genre debut in Platinum Dunes’ 2003  white-knuckle remake of Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Roles in David S. Goyer’s Blade: Trinity, David R. Ellis’ Cellular, Neil Burger’s The Illusionist, and the Nicholas Cage sci-fi actioner Next followed.

The 29-year-old looker will next be seen in French director Pascal Laugier’s (Martyrs) English language feature film debut The Tall Man.
