Jesse Metcalfe (“Desperate Housewives”) has joined Michael Douglas and Amber Tamblyn in Foresight Unlimited’s present-day remake of 1956 RKO classic Beyond a Reasonable Doubt.
The film is to be written and directed by Peter Hyams (Timecop), with filming scheduled to start March 3. “Doubt” will be produced by Ted Hartley and Moshe Diamant and Foresight’s Mark Damon.
The story finds a journalist investigating a corrupt district attorney and setting himself up as a murder suspect, only for the DA to uncover the plot and incriminate the scribe.
