LOS ANGELES, Dec. 18 (UPI) -- Hollywood actors Jeff Goldblum and Willem Dafoe are set to headline the new Holocaust drama "Adam Resurrected" from Bleiberg Entertainment.

Daily Variety reported the two veteran film actors will take on lead roles in the Paul Schrader-helmed production that focuses on a former Nazi collaborator who later becomes the head of an asylum.

Adapted by screenwriter Noah Stollman from Yoram Kaniuk's novel of the same name, "Resurrected" will also be produced by EMS/3L head Werner Wirsing.

Filming on the production, which will feature Ulf Israel as executive producer, will take place in Israel, Germany and Romania beginning next April.

Meanwhile, Dafoe is set to appear in the upcoming films "Paris je t'aime," "Anamorph" and" Mr. Bean's Holiday."
