Ralph Fiennes Cast in Who Killed Norma Barnes

Ralph Fiennes have been cast in Who Killed Norma Barnes.
The Hollywood Reporter says Fiennes will join Emily Mortimer and Emily Blunt, who are already cast.
The film is an adaptation of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's "The Idiot."
Inspired by an image of Christ’s suffering, Fyodor Dostoyevsky set out to portray "a truly beautiful soul" colliding with the brutal reality of contemporary society. Returning to St. Petersburg from a Swiss sanatorium, the gentle and naive Prince Myshkin—known as "the idiot"—pays a visit to his distant relative General Yepanchin and proceeds to charm the General and his circle. But after becoming infatuated with the beautiful Nastasya Filippovna, Myshkin finds himself caught up in a love triangle and drawn into a web of blackmail, betrayal, and, ultimately, murder.
Malcolm McKay is writing and directing with filming due to start in the fall.
