"The Woman in Cabin 10 follows a journalist who witnesses a passenger being thrown overboard a luxury yacht at night – only to be told that it didn't happen as all the passengers and crew are accounted for," reads the official synopsis for the film.
"Despite no one believing her, she continues to look for answers, putting her own life in danger."
The film is directed by The Dig's Simon Stone, who also co-wrote the script with Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse – the writing duo behind Snake Eyes: GI Joe Origins.

As for Scodelario, the actor recently began filming in Ottawa for Alex Winter's upcoming film Adulthood, which also stars Booksmart's Billie Lourd, Frozen's Josh Gad and Barry's Anthony Carrigan. Details of their roles haven't been announced yet.
"Adulthood is about a sister and brother, Megan and Noah, who are barely hanging on in present-day America, like all of us," teases the film's official logline.
When they discover a dead body in their parents' basement, the siblings are forced to return to their hometown, where they are pulled into a rabbit hole of crime and murder.
