Actor Jamie Kennedy will
produce and Nick Stahl will star in the indie drama "In
Northwood."
The film is a redemption tale centering on a man condemned
to a mental hospital for committing murder. Kennedy described
the project as taking place "at a moment when you're at a
crossroads and have to choose what decisions you would make to
survive."
First-time director D.W. Brown, a prolific playwright who
was Kennedy's acting teacher, will direct from his own script.
Olivia Wilde, Dash Mihok and Shohreh Aghdashloo will
co-star.
Kennedy co-wrote and starred in the hip-hop comedy
"Malibu's Most Wanted," which earned $34 million for Warner
Bros. in 2003. The actor also created the Fran Drescher sitcom
"Living With Fran" and created and starred in the WB Network
prank show "The Jamie Kennedy Experiment."
Stahl is best known for his role in "Terminator 3: Rise of
the Machines" and played the lead role in the recent indie
thriller "Quid Pro Quo."
