Jessica Biel Signs Up For “Die A Little”

Gaining popularity by the minute, Jessica Biel continues lining up work, as she has just agreed to star in United Artists’ crime thriller Die a Little.

The movie, which is based on Megan Abbott’s novel, is about “a schoolteacher and her LAPD detective brother whose lives are turned upside down by a mysterious woman.”

According to Variety, “Though the novel is set in 1954, the movie will be based in the present day.”

United Artists has set up the movie with Richard Gladstein through his FilmColony banner and Biel’s Iron Ocean Films - meaning that Jessica gets to step into the producer role as well.
