Alan Cumming is set to star in and direct the dark comedy
Suffering Man's Charity, says Hollywood Reporter.
David Boreanaz, Anne Heche, Henry Thomas and Carrie Fisher have already joined the feature.
Boreanaz plays a struggling writer who is accidentally killed by Cumming one evening. Cumming discovers the writer's novel and ends up taking credit for penning it. When it becomes a success, the writer comes back to haunt him.
