Aurora Perrineau (Kaos) has been tapped for an undisclosed role in Angels in the Asylum, an upcoming indie drama marking the feature debut of writer-director Rob Sorrenti.
Perrineau joins an ensemble which also includes Katherine Waterston, Simon Pegg, Minnie Driver and Rose Williams, as previously announced.
Inspired by a BBC Newsnight exposé, the film tells the untold story of 50 women who were forcibly confined in isolation at Surrey's Long Grove Asylum. Beginning in 1907, these women — deemed typhoid carriers — were imprisoned in the former psychiatric hospital, their lives shaped by fear, stigma, and medical injustice. Pic explores their struggle for freedom and dignity in the face of a system that saw them as threats rather than individuals, shedding light on a dark chapter in medical history.
Sorrenti and Heather Greenwood are producing the pic, currently shooting in the UK, with Parkland Pictures handling sales.
Best known for her role as Dani Powell in Fox's procedural drama Prodigal Son, Perrineau has also been seen on shows like Westworld, Kaos, When They See Us and Into the Dark, among others. Prior feature credits include Truth or Dare, Passengers, Jem and the Holograms, and Drake Doremus' Equals. The actress is represented by CAA, Strand Entertainment, Insight Management & Production, and attorney J.R. McGinnis.
