Shailene Woodley To Star In Horror Film Based On The Life Of Author, Patricia Highsmith
Shailene Woodley has landed a new role! The actress is set to star in the upcoming horror film, The Murderous Miss Highsmith, alongside Cara Delevingne and Noémie Merlant.
Based on the life of author Patricia Highsmith, “…the film will reimagine the author’s life as a horror movie, focusing on the formative period just before she wrote her most celebrated work, The Talented Mr. Ripley, which was partly inspired by her doomed relationships with two women. The project aims to get inside the mind of the author, who will be played by Emmy-nominee Woodley, and reveal her fascination for gruesome murders, exploring how her tumultuous love life influenced her persona. Cara Delevingne and Portrait of a Lady on Fire breakout Merlant will both face off against Woodley as her companions.”
