'Battleship' villains to be aliens?
The villains in Peter Berg's Battleship movie will be aliens, according to website Latino Review.

Based on the Hasbro board game, Jon and Erich Hoeber's script for Battleship allegedly finds an international five-ship fleet facing an extra-terrestrial enemy.

Berg (Hancock) previously said that the contemporary story will revolve around a "very dynamic, violent and intense battle" at sea.

Battleship is scheduled to begin production next year for an August 5, 2011 release. Movies inspired by Hasbro properties Micronauts, Ouija and Monopoly are also in development.
