Charlize Theron is already set to play that woman named Libby Day who is:
…forced to reopen old wounds when a secret organization known as The Kill Club believe the brother is actually innocent, and set out to prove it.
Deadline reports that Hoult will play an awkward young man, Lyle who is the treasurer of the Kill Club, the group investigating the case of the killing of Day's family.
