Clint Eastwood has signed up three more people for his drama The Changeling, which already has Angelina Jolie on board. Jeffrey Donovan, Colm Feore, Amy Ryan, Michael Kelly, Jason Butler Harne and John Malkovich have all joined the film about a woman (Jolie) whose son goes missing in 1920s LA.

After reporting her child's disappearance, the woman has a boy returned to her, but she points out to the police that this one isn't actually hers, thanks all the same. Instead of being helped, she's thrown into an insane asylum for disagreeing with the LAPD. As the woman becomes convinced that her child is the victim of a serial killer and the child admits to fraud, she begins a crusade for justice and changes insanity legislation. That might all sound a bit Movie of the Week, but it's actually a true story.

Donovan will play a police captain, Feore a police chief, Butler Harne a man accused of the murder and Malkovich a reverend. Ryan and Kelly's roles are as yet unspecified.
