The romantic thriller Andorra already has Clive Owen set for the lead, and now it's adding Toni Collette, Gillian Anderson, Riccardo Scamarcio, and Joanna Lumley (Absolutely Fabulous) to the cast. The film is a reunion between Owen and his Words & Pictures director Fred Schepisi, who is adapting the novel by Peter Cameron. Owen plays a bookseller who heads to the tiny idyllic country to reinvent himself after a personal tragedy. There he gets swept up in the lives of the locals, eventually becoming suspect in the case of a woman found dead soon after his arrival.  [Deadline]
