As first reported on Deadline.com, actors Jennifer Aniston and Dennis Quaid are currently in talks to join the cast of the upcoming 'Jackie Brown' prequel THE SWITCH.

Aniston is considering taking on the role of Mickey Dawson, the wife of a corrupt real estate dealer (Quaid) in Detroit. In the film, she is kidnapped by two ex-cons, Louis Gara and Ordell Robbie, who will be portrayed by actors John Hawkes and Mos Def respectively. When her husband refuses to pay the randsom, she joins forces with her captors to get her revenge.

In Quentin Tarantino's 1997 film 'Jackie Brown' the roles of the kidnappers were played by Robert DeNiro and Samuel L. Jackson.

The film will be produced by Author Leonard, Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Lee Stollman and Michael Siegel. The script was written by Dan Schechter who will also direct the film.
