The film, which is being written by Michael Paisley (The Witcher), is set in the world of the upper echelon of New York City’s fashion scene and is being described as a psychological thriller in the same spirit as Darren Aronofsky’s Oscar-winning Black Swan.

“Selena’s involvement is an exciting direction for this project,” Adam Fogelson, STXfilms Motion Picture Group chairman, said in a statement. “She is supremely talented as both a star and a producer. Teaming Selena with Shawn and Dan’s expertise in the horror-thriller genre will elevate Dollhouse and we couldn’t be more thrilled by the way this is being developed.”

The 28-year-old actress/producer/musician is eyeing the project as a starring vehicle and will produce via her July Moon Productions banner alongside 21 Laps’ Levy and Dan Cohen, with Patricia Braga overseeing the film for STX and Emily Morris overseeing for 21 Laps.
