Adrien Brody, Forest Whitaker, Elijah Wood and Cam Gigandet have been enlisted as test subjects in upcoming psychological thriller The Experiment.
The film will be a remake of Oliver Hirschbiegel’s award-winning German film Das Experiment, which focused on a group of ordinary men recruited to take on the roles of guards and prisoners as part of a research study that examined how the effects of assigned roles, power and control affected the participants.
Brody is set to play the leader of the prisoners; Whitaker plays a guard who is corrupted by the power he is given.
Shooting begins next month with Prison Break creator Paul Scheuring in the director’s chair.
