Quintessa Swindell and Esai Morales have joined the cast of director Paul Schrader's next film Master Gardener, according to Variety. The two are set to star alongside Joel Edgerton and Sigourney Weaver as Mrs. Haverhill.

Swindell, who pairs their role with a part in this year's Black Adam will play Maya, the troubled great-niece of Mrs. Harverhill (Weaver), who owns an estate worked by Narvel Roth (Edgerton), an enigmatic horticulturist. Harverhill encourages Roth to employ Maya as an apprentice, despite his protests, and things quickly go south, dark secrets arising from Roth's past and threatening to capsize the lives of everyone on the estate. Morales will play Roth's protection offer, who has not yet been given a name.

The film is not the only project this year for Edgerton and Weaver, either. Edgerton is set to star in the upcoming film Thirteen Lives, directed by Ron Howard, while Weaver is set to reprise her role in Avatar 2 from James Cameron, over ten years after appearing in the original.
