Jennifer Aniston and Meryl Streep Cast in Wanted

By James Wray Mar 3, 2005, 21:37 GMT

Jennifer Aniston and Meryl Streep have been cast in Sheldon Turner's upcoming adaptation of Kim Wozencraft's novel "Wanted."

Variety reports the film is being produced by Dede Gardner for Aniston and Brad Pitt's Plan B.

In the novel Diane Wellman  was in the wrong place at the wrong time. On patrol one hot night in Texas, she happened across the scene of a chilling multiple murder. An idealistic young police officer, Diane questions the nature of the open-and-shut case. She knows the prosecutor has put an innocent man in prison for the crime. And Diane saw someone else that night.

Gail Rubin has been in the wrong place for the past eighteen years. She was sent to prison because of her peripheral involvement in a robbery--a robbery where someone was killed. And now someone is determined to make an example of Gail.

Both Diane and Gail have been done wrong. They want revenge. And they are willing to risk everything to find a way out of the nightmare their lives have become. When the two of them make a break for it, they delve into the crime for which Diane has been put away, and they uncover a bigger conspiracy than they can even imagine. And once they're on the run, there is no turning back.

No director is yet attached to the film.
