'The Accomplice' examines the power of shared history, what it costs to keep, and what happens when you start wondering just how well you know the one person who truly knows you."

The book is being adapted for the film by Olivia Milch ('Ocean's Eight,' 'Dude'), who will also executive produce. Collins will star in addition to executive producing. Along with Charlie McDowell and Alex Orlovsky, Dylan Clark and Brian Williams of Dylan Clark Productions will also serve as executive producers.
