Since recently putting his name to such feel-good schmaltz as “Flipped” and “The Bucket List,” it appears director Rob Reiner now craves a return to the darker films of his early career (“Ghosts of Mississippi,” “Misery”). He's just signed on to co-star as Leonardo DiCaprio's dad in Martin Scorsese's “Wolf of Wall Street,” making his first on-screen appearance since 2003's “Alex & Emma,” and has now announced he will direct a psychological thriller in the vein of “Cape Fear.”
THR reports Reiner is set to shoot “You Belong to Me,” which was written by David Murray, and follows a psychiatrist who professionally transgresses by talking about himself with a patient, and then deals with the dangerous consequences of that decision. Reiner recently expressed an admiration for the thriller genre, and cleared up reasons why he's stayed away from them for his past few films. “They are hard to make well,...

Rob Reiner hasn't directed a horror film since 1990's Misery, but that's about to change with You Belong to Me, which he just signed onto. The film, said to fall in the psychological thriller category with comparisons being made to Cape Fear, was written by David Murray.
Richard Lewis and his Southpaw Entertainment banner will produce with Scott Steindorff of Stone Village, along with Alan Greisman. Steindorff's Scott Pictures fund will finance. Dylan Russell, Peter Fruchtman, and Scott Lastaiti are executive producing. Reiner's Castle Rock and Gabriel Jerou from Southpaw will co-produce.
The project centers on a psychiatrist who does the one thing you are never supposed to do with your patients: talk about yourself. Production is planned for the fall in New York, and casting will begin immediately for the four leads, which include the psychiatrist, his wife, their daughter, and the patient's brother.

In the news earlier this week as an actor, Rob Reiner is now lining up another project as a director. The Hollywood Reporter brings word that Reiner will step behind the camera for You Belong to Me . What's more, the project marks Reiner's return to the horror genre after tackling the Stephen King adaptation Misery in 1990. The new film comes from screenwriter David Murray and is likened to Cape Fear in its tale of a psychiatrist who forms a potentially deadly connection with a patient. Richard Lewis, Alan Greisman and Scott Steindorff will produce with production being targeted for this fall in New York, likely just after Reiner completes work on Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street .
