Ryan Kwanten, Leslie Bibb and Amy Smart are starring in CBS Films thriller 7500, the studio announced Tuesday.

Takashi Shimizu (The Grudge) is directing.

The movie is about a group of passengers who encounter what appears to be a supernatural force while on a transpacific flight, according to CBS Films.

Kwanten (True Blood) and Smart (Crank) star as Brad and Pia Martin, a married couple who board Vista Pacific Flight 7500 for a trip to Japan. Bibb (Zookeeper) plays a flight attendant who is involved in a complicated and secret relationship, CBS says.

Greg Rosenberg wrote the script.

Taka Ichise, who produced Shimizu's Grudge, is producing with Roy Lee (The Ring).
