Actor John Cusack is in talks to join the casts of THE STEPFORD WIVES. If John can cut his deal he'll be joining his sister Joan Cusack who was cast earlier on in the project's development.

The brotherly Cusack would play the part of the husband of Nicole Kidman's character. The couple moves to a new neighborhood and soon the wife begins to suspect that something sinister is behind the idyllic setting. In fact, the husbands have replaced their wives with robots who cater to every whim and needs. Sister Cusack would play the part of one of the neighborhood wives who befriends Kidman's character and then is replaced with her mechanical counterpart.
