Martin
Scorsese
is directing a mystery based on a novel by
Dennis Lehane.
Leonardo
DiCaprio
,
Mark Ruffalo
,
Ben Kingsley,

Michelle Williams
, and
Patricia
Clarkson
were first announced to star. Now
Max von Sydow,
Emily Mortimer,
and Jackie
Earle Haley
are rounding out the cast. Yeah,
Shutter Island

has this slight chance of being totally awesome.

DiCaprio and Ruffalo star as two U.S. marshals
investigating a patient’s disappearance from an insane asylum. Deception, a
hurricane, and an inmate riot are what they get instead.

Production on the 1954-set mystery drama starts on March 6,
with Paramount Vantage aiming for an October 2, 2009 release date.
