LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Adam Beach will star opposite "Stone Cold" Steve Austin in "The Stranger," an action vehicle for the wrestling star.

The man-on-the-run story follows an FBI agent (Beach) who is tracking down a material witness (Austin) involved in a top-secret investigation. Erica Cerra, best known from the SyFy series "Eureka," will play a psychiatrist involved in the case.

Rob Lieberman is directing the indie film. Shooting begins lensing this week in Vancouver. Beach, a veteran of "Law & Order" and Clint Eastwood's "Flags of Our Fathers," will have a featured role on the next season of HBO's "Big Love."
