Amy Adams is in negotiations to star in writer-director Gilles Paquet-Brenner’s thriller Dark Places.

Adams will play Libby Day, a woman who, at seven-years old, survived the brutal massacre of her family and testified against her brother as the murderer. Twenty-five years later, the Kill Club, a secret-society obsessed with solving notorious crimes, bring her to question and confront the truth of what took place that day.

Stéphane Marsil will produce through Hugo Productions in association with Peter Safran. Grégoire Melin’s Paris-based Kinology will handle international sales.

Brenner had the highest grossing North American foreign language release last year with Sarah’s Key.

Adams is set to produce and star in the film adaptation of Steve Martin’s novel Object of Beauty with Maven Pictures and also stars in upcoming titles including Rob Lorenz’s Trouble with a Curve, Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Master, Walter Salles On The Road and Zach Snyder’s Superman: Man of Steel
