Nick Jonas to star in thriller


Nick Jonas, one of the Jonas Brothers, will make his acting debut in "Careful What You Wish For"

21 Mar – Singer Nick Jonas is set to make his acting debut in the upcoming edgy thriller by Elizabeth Allen, in a lead role no less, according to Collider.

Billed as an edgy thriller similar to "Basic Instinct" and "Body Heat", the 20-year-old star will play a young man named Doug, who gets caught up in a murder conspiracy involving the young wife whom he is having an affair with. Australian actress Isabel Lucas ("Red Dawn") has been casted in the role of the young wife.

Two more central roles have yet to be casted, which is Sheriff "Big Jack" and Insurance Investigator "Alvarez". It is also unknown who is playing Lucas' character's husband.


Isabel Lucas is known for starring in "Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen", "Immortals" and "Red Dawn".

Elizabeth Allen is best known for directing the mermaid film "Aquamarine", "Ramona and Beezus", as well as episodes of "Gossip Girl", "90210", "Life Unexpected" and "Vampire Diaries". The new thriller, "Careful What You Wish For", is her third directorial film feature.

To get an idea of the film, here is a full summary:

Doug gets more than he bargained for when he starts having an affair with Lena, the young wife of an investment banker renting the lake house next door for the summer. When her husband dies, a substantial life insurance policy is revealed, leading the circumstances surrounding his death to be suspect.

No word yet on the production or release dates.
