Kevin Macdonald ("The Last King of Scotland," "State of Play") will direct Tower Hill Entertainment's first feature film titled "Murder Mystery."
James Vanderbilt "Zodiac" wrote the script, which is about an American couple honeymooning in Europe who are implicated when they witness a murder and wind up embroiled in international intrigue.
William Shively, who owns the Florida-based Tower Hill Insurance Group, and Dixiana Farms in Lexington, Kentucky, will finance the feature.
Vanderbilt is producing alongside ContraFilm's Beau Flynn and Tripp Vinson, Tower Hill's A.J. Dix and Shively.
Dix was quoted as saying, " 'Murder Mystery' is pure entertainment. It's exciting, suspenseful and romantic."
The movie will be shot on location across Europe, and casting is now ongoing.
