Josh Duhamel (Safe Haven) and Alice Eve (Star Trek: Into Darkness) have joined the already impressive ensemble cast of the legal thriller Beyond Deceit. The film is the directorial debut for The Grudge screenwriter Shintaro Shimosawa, who rewrote a script originally written by Simon Boyes (Hangman) and first-timer Adam Mason.
Al Pacino (The Godfather), Anthony Hopkins (Silence of the Lambs), and Glen Powell (The Expendables 3) also star in the movie that centers on a young ambitious lawyer (Duhamel) who takes on a ruthless executive of a pharmaceutical company. His ambitions get the better of him when he’s framed for a murder. Eve will play his wife.
Duhamel is replacing Dan Stevens (TV’s Downton Abbey), who had to leave the movie after it conflicted with the filming of the live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast. Duhamel is currently on the other side of the law as cop on CBS’s Battle Creek. Eve recently shot the thriller Criminal with Ryan Reynolds, Kevin Costner, and Wonder Woman-to-be Gal Gadot. She is set to return to the Star Trek franchise in Star Trek 3.
