Following the news of Angela Sarafyan joining the Zac Efron-starring, Ted Bundy-centric Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile earlier in the week, now comes word that Grace Victoria Cox has been added to the picture.

As per Deadline, Cox – best known to genre fans for the likes of Under the DomeManson’s Lost GirlsTwin Peaks and the upcoming Heathers TV series – is playing Carol Daronch in the film. That role is described as “a soft featured girl who survived Ted’s kidnapping attempt and later ID’s him in court.”

The movie is to be told from the viewpoint of Bundy’s longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Kloepfer, with Lily Collins tackling that role. As mentioned, Zac Efron is playing Bundy as the film tells the tale of his multi-year murder spree. The aforementioned Sarafyan is playing Joanna, the close friend of Elizabeth’s who gets her to eventually see what brutal acts her partner has partaken in. Elsewhere, John Malkovich is playing Edward Cowart, the Judge tasked with overseeing Bundy’s trial in 1979.

To be directed by Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2’s Joe Berlinger, Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile has yet to be given a set release date.
