Asia Argento will topline her father Dario Argento's English-language horror film The Mother of Tears, billed as the third installment in the cult helmer's "Three Mothers" trilogy.
Asia Argento, whose credits include Marie Antoinette and XXX, will play an American art student who unwittingly unleashes a plague of witches in Rome by opening an ancient urn.
Shooting is set to start Oct. 30 in Rome, with plans to move after one week to Turin.
Rounding out the cast are Udo Kier (Dogville), Massimo Sarchielli (Under the Tuscan Sun), and Philippe Leroy (The Bible).
The screenplay is co-penned by U.S. screenwriter duo Jace Anderson and Adam Gierasch (Toolbox Murders) with Argento.
The previous films in Argento's "Three Mothers" trilogy are Suspiria and Inferno.
