Vera Farmiga has boarded director Randall Miller's indie music biopic The Drummer starring Aaron Eckhart, about Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson.

Vera Farmiga will play notable Fleetwood Mac singer-songwriter Christine McVie.

The Drummer follows six years in Dennis Wilson's life during which he and Christine McVie sparked a passionate and tumultuous relationship before Dennis Wilson's death in 1983. Fleetwood Mac's album "Mirage," released in 1982, features the hit song "Hold Me," co-written by Christine McVie and reportedly inspired by her love affair with Dennis Wilson.

Vera Farmiga joins the project as a classically trained pianist. "She has a number of duets with Eckhart in the film," Miller noted. "The combination of Aaron and Vera will be pure magic."

Production begins June 15.

The Drummer comes to theaters in 2012 and stars Aaron Eckhart, Vera Farmiga, Chloe Moretz, Rupert Grint. The film is directed by Randall Miller.
