Elisha Cuthbert ("House of Wax", "The Girl Next Door", TV's "24") will star in "Captivity," a Roland Joffe-directed thriller being cited as "the first true Russian-American co-production" by producer Mark Damon reports Variety.

The film is set in Manhattan but will be shot at the Moscow-based Mosfilm Studios in late May. Cuthbert will play a fashion model who, along with a chauffeur, gets kidnapped and held in a small room by a serial killer. While the psycho methodically terrorizes them, the victims draw strength from each other and fall in love.

The script was penned by Larry Cohen ("Phone Booth", "Cellular").
