NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- C13Features, the podcast movie division of leading premium podcast studio Cadence13, an Audacy company, today announced that critically acclaimed, Emmy-nominated actress Kate Mara and SAG Award-nominated actor Adam Scott have signed on to star in the psychological thriller Ghostwriter.

Written by Alix Sobler, Ghostwriter follows Mara's character Kate Michaels, a writer who is offered work ghostwriting a new novel about a mysterious killer.
