Adrien Brody, Forest Whitaker, Elijah Wood and Cam Gigandet will star in "The Experiment," a remake of the German psychological thriller "Das Experiment" for Inferno Entertainment and Magnet Media Group.

According to Variety, "Prison Break" creator Paul Scheuring is directing from his screenplay.

"Das Experiment," directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel, centered on a group of ordinary men recruited to take on the roles of guards and prisoners as part of a research study and examined how the effects of assigned roles, power and control affected the participants. Brody will play the leader of the prisoners while Whitaker will play a guard who's corrupted by his newly gained power.

Marty Adelstein, Inferno's Bill Johnson and Magnet Media's Jeanette Buerling and Maggie Monteith will produce.

Inferno's Jim Seibel and Tracee Stanley and Magnet's John Michaels are executive producing along with Scott Nemes and Dawn Parouse.

Filming begins in Iowa next month.
