Elijah Wood ("Lord Of The Rings") has signed to join the cast of "The Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind," reports Variety.

Wood will star alongside Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Kirsten Dunst, Tom Wilkinson and Mark Ruffalo.

The drama is being directed by Michel Gondry from a script by Charlie Kaufman ("Adaptation").

The film revolves around a failed couple, played by Carrey and Winslet, who attempt to rekindle their romance through a revolutionary treatment that erases painful memories from the human brain. Wood plays a technician who implements the treatment. A shrink (Wilkinson), his receptionist (Dunst) and the techs (Wood and Ruffalo) have motivations that come into play when the couple tries to undo the treatment.

The movie will begin shooting next month in New York.
