When it was announced earlier this year that Emma was cast in the Alejandro Amenabar directed film, she expressed her delight in a statement.
'I am passionate about Alejandro and his work and am so happy to be collaborating with him,' the Perks Of Being A Wallflower star said.
'I'm really excited by the challenge my character presents to me as an actress... I can't wait to begin.'
The thriller revolves around a father who is convicted of sexually abusing his daughter, but has no recollection of the alleged crimes.
