The $20.5 million film is penned by Cronenberg and produced by Portuguese producer Paulo Branco's Alfama Films and Cronenberg's Toronto-based Antenna, in association with Kinology.
Farrell will play a millionaire Manhattan asset manager who loses all his wealth over the course of one day. Cotillard will play his wife.
Lensing will take place from March to May in Toronto and New York.
