Stage and screen actress Jessica Biel will join Tony Award winner Scarlett Johannson and Oscar winners Anthony Hopkins and Helen Mirren in the film Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho, according to Deadline.com


The film, to be written by John McLaughlin and directed by Sacha Gervasi, is based on the non-fiction book by Stephen Rebello that tracks how Hitchcock decided to make the now-classic film.

Hopkins will play Hitchcock and Mirren will play the filmmaker’s wife, Alma Reville. Johansson and Biel will play Janet Leigh and Vera Miles, who co-starred in Psycho.
