Per NJ.com, The Good Nurse will follow the story of Amy Loughren, the ICU nurse who filled police in on her suspicions on Cullen, and ultimately helped bring justice to the situation.

The movie has an impressive cast: it stars Eddie Redmayne (The Danish Girl, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them) as Cullen, and Jessica Chastain (The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Zero Dark Thirty) as Loughren.
