Psycho Therapy: The Shallow Tale of a Writer Who Decided to Write About a Serial Killer starring Steve Buscemi premiered at Tribeca last year, and Variety reports this afternoon that Brainstorm Media has acquired the film.

In the film, written and directed by Tolga Karaçelik, “In the midst of a divorce, a struggling writer befriends a retired serial killer, who becomes his marriage counselor by day, and killing counselor for his next book by night.”

John Magaro (Past Lives) and Britt Lower (Severance) also star.

“Tolga Karacelik has crafted a film full of twists and turns (and an all-star cast) that will keep people on the edge of their seat throughout,” said Brainstorm’s Michelle Shwarzstein.

“I make films I love watching, and this film is one of them,” Karaçelik said in a statement. “What started as a simple idea in 2015 grew into something much bigger, and in the process, I grew too— as a filmmaker and as a person. It was a pleasure to work with all the crew and actors, but especially working with John, Britt, and Steve was an incredible experience.”

The film is set to release April 2025.
