“Hugo” star Ben Kingsley joins Poe-inspired “Eliza Graves”

Michael Caine and Ben Kingsley have joined the cast of Eliza Graves.

They will appear alongside Kate Beckinsale and Jim Sturgess in Brad Anderson's horror-thriller, Digital Spy reported citing Deadline.

Eliza Graves is loosely based on the Edgar Allan Poe short story The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether.

Sturgess plays a Harvard Medical School graduate who arrives in a new job at a mental asylum, not realising that the inmates have taken over.

There he meets and falls in love with a beautiful patient.

Caine will next be seen in Now You See Me. Kingsley will shortly star in Iron Man 3.
