Idris Elba and Taraji P. Henson will star in No Good Deed, a thriller from Screen Gems.
Per Screen Gens, the Aimee Lagos-written screenplay centers “around a former D.A turned stay-at-home mom and her two small children who are terrorized and kidnapped from their home when she invites a good looking mysterious stranger in to wait for help after his car ran off the road.”
Will Packer of Rainforest Films banner is producing along with Lee Clay. Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Lindsey Williams, Elba, and Rob Hardy will executive produce.
Screen Gems is eying an April start in Georgia.
Elba won a Golden Globe starring in Luther, the acclaimed BBC police show and has been growing in stature across the pond in America. He was a key figure in last summer’s Thor and is currently on screen in Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. Deed will be his fifth movie for Screen Gems, after Takers, Obsessed, This Christmas and The Gospel.
Henson, who was nominated for Oscar for her work in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, stars in Screen Gems’ upcoming Think Like a Man. She currently appears on TV’s Person of Interest.
