Alongside rising starlet Elizabeth Banks, Tobey Maguire will headline the independent comedy The Details, written and directed by Jacob Estes. Production is scheduled to begin next month.

The film, also starring Ray Liotta and Dennis Haysbert, follows a dysfunctional married couple (Maguire and Banks) whose problems are intensified by a family of troublesome raccoons that find a home in their backyard.

Details will be the second collaboration between Maguire and Banks—they both starred in Gary Ross’s Oscar-nominated Seabiscuit, which grossed $120 million domestically in 2003, around $143 million when adjusted for inflation.

Maguire will appear in Jim Sheridan’s upcoming war drama titled Brothers, set for a December 4 release date. It will be Maguire’s first feature gig since Spider-Man 3 in 2007.
