Co–starring Bradley Cooper (The Hangover) and Golden Globeâ winner Ian McShane (“Deadwood”), CASE 39 is a heart-stopping chiller with a startling ending.

family services social worker Emily Jenkins (Renée Zellweger)
thinks she has seen it all... until she meets 10-year old Lilith
Sullivan (Jodelle Ferland) and the child's cruel and dangerous
parents. Her worst fears are confirmed when the parents try to
harm Lily, their only daughter. Frightened for her life, Emily
enlists the help of Detective Mike Barron (Ian McShane) and
takes Lily in while she continues the search for the perfect
foster family. Just as it seems as though Lily is on her way to
