The Good Wife alum Josh Charles and The Worst Person In The World’s Anders Danielsen Lie have joined Mothers’ Instinct, the psychological thriller that stars Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway. The film started principal photography this month in the States, and was recently acquired by Neon for the U.S.
The story is set in the early 1960s, where best friends and neighbors Alice (Chastain) and Celine (Hathaway) both live an idyllic traditional lifestyle with manicured lawns, successful husbands and sons of the same age. But this perfect harmony is suddenly shattered after a tragic accident. Guilt, suspicion and paranoia combine to unravel their sisterly bond and a psychological battle of wills begins as the maternal instinct reveals its darker side.
Based on the novel Derrière La Haine, by Barbara Abel, the movie is a remake of the 2018 Belgian film Duelles from director Olivier Masset-Depasse. Renowned cinematographer Benoit Delhomme (The Theory Of Everything) is helming after Masset-Depasse had to bow out due to a family commitment, though he remains on the picture as executive producer.

He’s repped by UTA. Danielsen Lie, a 2021 Deadline “One to Watch,” recently starred in Joachim Trier’s Oscar-nominated The Worst Person In The World for which he won a Supporting Actor nod from the National Society of Film Critics. Among other credits, he was seen previously in Paul Greengrass’ 22 July. He’s repped by CAA. European finance and production outfit Anton,
