Stop us if this sounds familiar: A soapy thriller about beautiful people caught in a web of

A cast filled with attractive up-and-comers, and peppered with a few Hollywood legends?

Camilla Mendes - aka Veronica Lodge herself - in a leading role?

But no, it's not the latest season of Riverdale.

Instead, it's Dangerous Lies, a twisty new film that hits on April 30.

Dangerous Lies is the sort of movie that you don't want to know too much about before watching

- for this kind of thing, outrageous plot twists are a big part of the fun.

But you don't have to go in completely blind.

You won't find any spoilers here, but you will find the lowdown on Dangerous Lies' premise,

its surprisingly stacked cast, and the people who brought the movie to life behind-the-scenes.

Katie and Adam's luck is about to change, and not necessarily for the better.

The young, broke couple can't explain why Katie's elderly patient, Leonard, left her

his entire estate, but they'll happily move into his house anyway, in hopes of making

"Come on, it's our first night in the new house."

That's when the mysteries begin to pile up.

What's with the trunk full of cash hidden inside the mansion?

Why is that shady real estate agent so interested in Katie and Adam?

Did Leonard really die of natural causes, or was there foul play involved?

And, of course, the big one: Why did Leonard make Katie - a woman he's only known for a

On the surface, Dangerous Lies treads similar ground as 2019's hit, Knives Out, although

While Knives Out is a quirky, comedic whodunit, Dangerous Lies plays things much straighter,

although it does so with a heightened, pulpy flare.

"If you want to find new listings, check the obituaries."

Dangerous Lies drips with over-the-top melodrama.

If you're a fan of Riverdale and you just can't get enough, Dangerous Lies should scratch

Not only is Dangerous Lies a sordid little story full of murder and mayhem, but it also

stars Camilla Mendes, who's been playing the shrewd debutante Veronica on the CW's sexed-up

Archie comics adaptation for the past four seasons.

Despite Riverdale's unique style, tone, and cast, Mendes consistently proves she's an

She earned rave reviews for her performance in Coyote Lake, and even though her feature

film career is still getting started, she's appeared in a number of hits, including The

Dangerous Lies should give Mendes a chance to show off her chops, and it'll be nice for

fans to see how well she fares when she's unshackled from Riverdale's surreal and bombastic

Mendes' co-star in Dangerous Lies, Jessie T. Usher, isn't quite as well-known - not

yet, anyway - but he's the very definition of an up-and-comer.

The young star has already appeared in a few big-budget blockbusters: he played Will Smith's

son in Independence Day: Resurgence, and then played Shaft Jr. in 2019's soft reboot of

But you're most likely to recognize him from the raunchy superhero comedy The Boys, in

You know, the super-speedster who ran straight through Wee Hughie's girlfriend?

Dangerous Lies' supporting cast is nothing to sneeze at, either.

Jamie Chung, the former Real World star who's gone on to appear in projects like Zack Snyder's

Sucker Punch and Fox's X-Men spin-off Gifted, shows up in Dangerous Lies as Leonard's lawyer.

Cam Gigandet, who you probably recognize from The O.C. and Twilight, is the creepy real

Dawson's Creek, Rissoli and Isles, and NCIS veteran Sasha Alexander has a featured role,

However, the biggest surprise on Dangerous Lies' cast list is actually old-school Hollywood

royalty in the form of Elliott Gould, who plays Leonard.

While modern audiences might know the actor best from Steven Soderbergh's Ocean's Eleven,

or Contagion, Gould was a mainstay of late '60s, '70s, and '80s cinema.

Gould played Trapper John in the film MASH, which inspired the hit sitcom, portrayed Raymond

Chandler's iconic private eye Phillip Marlowe in Robert Altman's experimental mystery flick

The Long Goodbye, and scored an Academy Award nomination for his role in Bob & Carol & Ted

He's been around, and while he may not be in the movie much, his veteran presence goes

a long way towards making Dangerous Lies absolutely worth watching.

Dangerous Lies' writer and director aren't quite as recognizable as the movie's stars,

They both have plenty of experience with this kind of thing.

In fact, director Michael Scott - no, not that one - has been directing TV movies since

If you're a frequent viewer of the Hallmark Channel - c'mon, it's okay to admit it - chances

Scott has over 50 movies on his filmography, many of them with titles like Murder at 75

Birch, Fatal Lessons: The Good Teacher, and Along Came a Nanny.

Dangerous Lies is going to be right at home.

Writer David Golden hasn't been at this quite as long, although he has an impressive list

of credits that include Every Christmas Has a Story, Finding Father Christmas, Christmas

Festival of Ice, Home for Christmas Day - yeah, it's a lot of Christmas.

Turns out Golden's name is a regular credit on the Hallmark Channel's offerings of Holiday

While a pulpy thriller seems like a far cry from fluffy holiday fare, Dangerous Lies actually

Although his most recent output definitely skews towards family-friendly, Golden cut

his teeth on mysteries like Absence of the Good, in which Stephen Baldwin plays a homicide

With any luck, Dangerous Lies will give Golden the opportunity to cut loose.

Anyone who spends that much time telling Christmas stories is bound to have some frustrations

If it turns out that Santa was behind it the whole time.
