NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - Susan Sarandon, Bill Pullman and Josh Lucas are joining Cillian Murphy and Ellen Page in the psychological thriller "Peacock."

Film

The story is set in Peacock, Nebraska, where a train crashes into the backyard of a bank clerk (Murphy), revealing a woman no one knew lived there.

Lucas will play the bank clerk's friend, a local cop; Pullman is cast as his supervisor; and Sarandon will portray the mayor's wife, who runs the local women's shelter. Page will play a woman from the clerk's past who might hold the secret to the mystery woman.

Michael Lander is directing the feature, from a screenplay he and Ryan Roy wrote.
