Angelina Jolie Set To Star In 'The Kept'
Imperative Entertainment has acquired the rights to adapt James Scott’s novel “The Kept” and Angelina Jolie is set to star and produce the film alongside Alice Birch.
Dan Friedkin and Bradley Thomas of Imperative Entertainment are also set to produce the film and the studio’s head of film Jillian Apfelbaum is set to oversee the film’s production and development.
The story is set in the winter of 1897, and follows a trio of killers that descends upon an isolated farm in upstate New York. Midwife Elspeth Howell returns home to the carnage: her husband and four of her children, murdered. Before she can discover her remaining son Caleb, alive and hiding the kitchen pantry, another shot rings out over the snow-covered valley. Caleb, who is 12 years old, must tend to his mother until she recovers enough for them to take to the frozen wilderness in search of the men responsible.
