Cary Elwes has joined the all-star cast of Morgan Creek's "Georgia Rule," a dark comedy being directed by Garry Marshall.
Penned by Mark Andrus ("As Good as It Gets"), the story centers on a rebellious young woman (Lindsay Lohan) who is sent by her dysfunctional mother (Felicity Huffman) to spend a summer with her grandmother (Jane Fonda).
Elwes is set to play Huffman's upstanding husband, an outstanding citizen who, in secret, molests his stepdaughter (Lohan).
Elwes, who is best known for his role as the hero Westley in "The Princess Bride," recently portrayed a young Pope John Paul II in the CBS miniseries "Pope John Paul II" and serial killer Ted Bundy on A&E's "The Riverman." He starred in the cult horror flick "Saw," which earned him an MTV Movie Award nomination.
He will be seen opposite Sienna Miller, Hayden Christensen and Guy Pearce in George Hickenlooper's "Factory Girl," a drama about '60s scenester Edie Sedgwick that will be released next year.
