According to The Hollywood Reporter Oscar-nominated actress Lena Olin and Finnish actor Tobias Zilliacus have joined the cast of The Hypnotist.

The Hypnotist is a Swedish murder thriller starring Mikael Persbrandt (The Hobbit, In a Better World). Produced by Peter Possne’s Sonet Film, it’s based on the first novel in a detective series by Lars Kepler and is intended to be the start of a franchise.

In the novel Detective Linna investigates a grisly triple homicide where the only survivor, a young boy, is too traumatized to testify. Linna convinces a famous psychologist, against his better judgment, to hypnotize the boy, setting off a terrifying chain of events.

Hallstrom will begin shooting this winter for a planned 2012 release in Sweden.
