Kristen Stewart and Chloe Sevigny will play the main roles in the drama about the famous crime, which is attributed to Lizzie Borden. This is reported by the Variety edition.

The double murder of Borden's father and stepmother was committed in August 1892. At the time of the crime, only Lizzie herself and the maid were present in the house. The police found that both were killed as a result of multiple ax wounds. Since there was much evidence that the crime was committed by Lizzie Borden herself, who never got along with her stepmother, she was arrested. At the trial, the defendant's impeccable reputation played a role, despite the presence of very strong evidence of her guilt and confusing testimony. The jury acquitted her. The murder was never solved.

The process was so widely covered in the press that the name Borden became a household name and was even mentioned in a popular children's counting book. Sevigny will play the main role in the movie, and Stuart will play the role of the maid and key witness Bridget Sullivan.

The story of Lizzie Borden has been movieed several times. So, in 2014, a television movie on this topic was released under the title "Lizzie Borden took an ax." The terms of work on the new project have not yet been specified.
