Mirren to star as Hitchcock's wife in biopic

Dame Helen Mirren is set to play Alfred Hitchcock's wife in a new biopic.

The 'Arthur' actress looks likely to join the cast of 'Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho' as Alma Reville alongside Sir Anthony Hopkins, who has been attached to play the legendary filmmaker for around a year, though insiders told the Hollywood Reporter that negotiations are still in the early stages.
