The Fox Searchlight biopic "The Eyes of Tammy Faye" has landed Andrew Garfield as its stars.

The two actors will play the real-life televangelists who the story centers on, Tammy Faye and Jim Bakker, Michael Showalter ("The Big Sick") will direct.

The Bakkers became popular in the '70s and '80s, to the point that they hosted multiple TV shows, founded a TV network, and even built an theme park. They later became embroiled in scandal, though, and neither their empire nor their marriage survived. The film is one of many takes on their story, following the likes of the aforementioned documentary, multiple musicals, a play, and more.

Both Chastain and Garfield are well-known actors with past Academy Award nominations to their respective names. Chastain, a two-time nominee, has recently starred in "Breathe."

Chastain is set to produce "The Eyes of Tammy Faye" alongside her Freckle Films colleague Kelly Carmichael and MWM Studios' Gigi Pritzker and Rachel Shane. Jordana Mollick will executive produce.
