"Twin Peaks" star Sherilyn Fenn has been roped in to play silent film star Alla Nazimova in "Silent Life," an indie biopic about Rudolph Valentino. Valentino was a Hollywood superstar in the silent movie era and died unexpectedly in 1926. Vladislav Kozlov is directing the film and will play Valentino, reported Variety.

Kozlov is producing the project with Natalia Dar under their Dreamer Pictures banner, along with Yuri Ponomarev. The script was written by Kozlov, Dar, and Ksenia Jarova. The film also features Isabella Rossellini as Valentino's mother, Franco Nero as Valentino's spirit, and Terry Moore as the mourning "Lady in Black".
