4 cast members join 'Two Jacks'

Bernard Rose directing Tolstoy tale

Billy Zane and Jack Huston have joined the cast of indie pic "Two Jacks."

Jamie Harris and Richard Portnow have also boarded the project, which stars Sienna Miller and Danny Huston.

Feature adaptation of the Leo Tolstoy-penned short story "Two Hussars" centers on two generations of the Hollywood-based Hussar family, namely, the father Jack (Danny Huston) and his son played by Huston's real-life nephew Jack.

"Two Jacks" was adapted by Bernard Rose, who is directing. He previously helmed 1997's Sophie Marceau-Sean Bean rendition of "Anna Karenina."

Julia Verdin produces through her banner Rough Diamond.

Zane will play a movie star, while Harris ("The Green Hornet") and Portnow ("Law Abiding Citizen") will portray a director and studio head, respectively.
