Per Deadline, Idina Menzel has been cast in the new film ‘American Murderer’! Her role is unknown at this time but she joins Tom Pelphry, Ryan Phillippe and Jackie Weaver.

“American Murderer” is based on the true story of Jason Derek Brown, a charismatic conman who bankrolls his luxurious lifestyle through a series of scams. When his funds run low and his past catches up with him, he plots his most elaborate scheme yet and, in the process, becomes the FBI’s most unlikely top ten fugitive.

Matthew Gentile wrote the script and is directing the independent film, which is shooting in Salt Lake City.
