No, not a real one… but Laura Linney and Tom Wilkinson have signed on to star in The Exorcism of Anneliese Michel to be directed by Scott Derrickson for Sony’s Screen Gems.
The story is a drama inspired by true events that finds Linney playing an attorney who defends a Catholic priest (Wilkinson) who has been charged with the negligent homicide of a 19-year-old girl whose exorcism he presided over. The case reawakens faith in the lawyer.
