By Borys Kit

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Jeffrey Donovan, Colm Feore and John Malkovich have joined Angelina Jolie in director Clint Eastwood's true-life drama "Changeling."

The Universal Pictures project follows a woman (Jolie) whose son goes missing in 1920s Los Angeles. The police return the wrong child and the woman is thrown into an insane asylum for disagreeing with the LAPD. When it seems that her real son has been murdered by a child serial killer and the child returned admits to fraud, she takes her case to the city council and takes down the mayor, the police chief and several corrupt officers, concurrently sparking changes in the insanity legislation.

Donovan will play a police captain, Feore the chief of police, and Malkovich a clergyman.

Donovan is the star of USA Networks' "Burn Notice." Feore will be seen as a series regular on the upcoming season of Fox's "24," in which he plays first husband opposite Cherry Jones. Malkovich will next be seen in Robert Zemeckis' "Beowulf."
