Guy Pearce and Mary-Louise Parker will star in the psychological thriller "The Well" for Cooper's Town Productions, reports Variety.

According to Variety: Philip Seymour Hoffman and Emily Ziff will produce the psychological thriller "The Well," starring Guy Pearce and Mary-Louise Parker. Tim Guinee will write and helm in his feature directorial debut.

The filmmakers are keeping details of the storyline under wraps, but “Well” revolves around a well-to-do Manhattan couple whose obsessive pursuit of salvation ultimately leads to destruction.

Guy Pearce is one of the most talented actors working today, but I really don’t think the man gets enough credit. He was beyond great in “L.A. Confidential” and Christopher Nolan’s “Memento,” and I think he will excel in this film. Mary-Louise Parker, who is terrific on “Weeds,” should also fit into the film nicely.

Guinee sent his script to Hoffman, who immediately brought the project onboard at Cooper's Town.
