Danny Huston, Shawn Roberts (pictuted) and Bojana Novakovic are joining Mel Gibson for the thriller "Edge of Darkness " says The Hollywood Reporter.

"Darkness" centers on a veteran cop (Gibson) whose only grown-up child (Novakovic) is murdered on the steps of his home.The cop soon finds out that his daughter was living a secret life of corporate cover-ups and government conspiracy

Huston takes on the role of a shady businessman while Roberts will play the role of the daughter's grief -stricken boyfriend.

Robert De Niro is cast as a Central Intelligence operative. William Monahan and Andrew Bovell adapted the script from the British mini-series.

I'm curious to see where this goes....But I still have issues with Gibson over that traffic stop apology and haven't really done much to support him and his career since then.
