British actor Ben Kingsley ("Lucky Number Slevin") will join forces with Tea Leoni ("Fun with Dick and Jane") and Luke Wilson ("The Family Stone") in the mob comedy "You Kill Me," Variety reports.

The indie pic will centre on a hitman from Buffalo who is sent to the West Coast to dry out. He attends AA meetings, gets a sponsor, and lands a job in a mortuary, where he meets a woman who is a relative of one his hits.

Director John Dahl ("The Last Seduction") will helm the project with shooting to begin later this month in Winnipeg.

Kingsley's is currently filming the action-adventure "The Enchanted Sword," with fellow Brit actor Colin Firth, while Wilson is set to star in the comedy "Super Ex-Girlfriend," with Uma Thurman.
