Yellowstone & Monster stars are among some of the names to the star-studded cast of the Emma Roberts movie The Technique. The movie will be the directorial debut of Brian McGreevy, who created the short-lived Netflix series Hemlock Grove, based on his novel of the same name. McGreevy will also pen the original screenplay for The Technique, which is described as a psychological thriller, which looks to have the makings of a star-studded cast.

Per Deadline, Kelsey Asbille, who plays Monica Dutton in Yellowstone, and Nicholas Alexander Chavez, who portrayed Lyle Menendez in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, have been added to the cast alongside Roberts. They will be ed by Ben Platt, Laura Harrier, and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo's Noomi Rapace. Miles Skinner and Andrea Bucko are set to produce alongside Jordan Drake, Chadd Harbold, David Duque-Estrada, and Russ Posternak.

What This Means For The Technique As A Movie

The Film Looks Set To An Ensemble Affair

The casting news means that The Technique boasts a strong body of characters, and while Roberts will undoubtedly be the lead, the strength of the ing cast could elevate this movie. Through his work on Hemlock Grove, McGreevy is well-versed in working with an ensemble cast, and the depth and range that performers like Asbille, Chavez, Rapace, and Platt can bring to the production bodes well for The Technique's story and narrative arcs. Currently, details about the plot and characters are under wraps.

Story details are under wraps at the moment, but the movie could be a success if McGreevy is able to match his screenplay and directorial vision to the talents of his stars.

Scream queen Roberts is no stranger to dark, twisted stories, making her the perfect choice to lead a psychological thriller. Asbille is on the rise, following her role in Yellowstone and a starring turn in Netflix thriller Don't Move. Chavez's role in Monsters makes him well-versed in the genre, and he could be a shining star. Ultimately, The Technique's impressive cast is reason to be optimistic about its chances of success.
