Dawson commits 'Sin,' joins ensemble cast

Thesp added to Miller graphic novel adaptation

Rosario Dawson has joined the ensemble of the Robert Rodriguez/Frank Miller-directed Dimension Films noir drama "Sin City."

Dawson will take part in the third and final segment. Rodriguez based the film on Miller's graphic novel series.

The finale also stars Benicio Del Toro, Clive Owen and Brittany Murphy. Quentin Tarantino is considered likely to direct some of that episode.

The "Sin City" cast also includes Bruce Willis, Josh Hartnett, Mickey Rourke, Nick Stahl, Jessica Alba, Elijah Wood, Carla Gugino, Jaime King and Marley Shelton.

Dimension co-chairman Bob Weinstein and co-prexys Brad Weston and Andrew Rona are overseeing production and Rodriguez and Elizabeth Avellan are producing.

Dawson's next project is the Oliver Stone-directed "Alexander"; she was last seen in "Shattered Glass" and opposite Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson in "The Rundown."
