Oscar nominated Swedish helmer Mikael Hafstrom (
Evil) is marked to direct Miramax Films' thriller
Derailed, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Derailed, which follows a middle-class professional whose life goes incredibly and criminally awry, is being adapted by Stuart Beattie from the novel by James Siegel.
Evil, Hafstrom's boarding-school drama, is not only nominated for an Oscar but also has been hotly tipped to sell at the Berlin International Film Festival this month.
