Piper Perabo, last seen in 20th Century Fox's holiday comedy Cheaper by the Dozen, has signed on for back-to-back indie projects. The actress will first star opposite James Marsden in 10th and Wolf.

Joe Pistone, Leo Rossi and Ivan Kavalsky are producing, with Suzanne De Laurentiis and Jeff Williams serving as executive producers.
