Oscar winner Melissa Leo and actor Michael K Williams are set to star in independent crime thriller "Body Brokers".
Also joining them in the project are Jack Kilmer, Frank Grillo and Alice Englert, reported Variety.
The plot follows a multi-billion dollar drug and alcohol treatment scheme which involves former drug addicts and dealers who become millionaires as fly-by-night "body brokers". Those brokers then recruit other addicts to seek treatment, before selling them off to facilities paying the highest price.
John Swab will direct the film from his script.
The filmmaker is also attached to produce along with Jeremy M Rosen and Robert Ogden Barnum.
