The Hollywood Reporter confirms that Skarsgård will join both Julianne Moore and Steve Coogan in the film, an adaptation of American author Henry James's popular novel.
Uncertainty directors Scott McGehee and David Siegel will co-direct from a script by Nancy Doyne and Carroll Cartwright.
The film will follow 6 year-old Maisie as she tries to cope with the tumultuous divorce of her eccentric parents, played by Moore and Coogan.
Skarsgård, best known for his role as the vampire Eric on True Blood, will play Moore's new husband.
Moore recently signed on to portray former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin in HBO's upcoming political film Game Change, while Skarsgård will next be seen when True Blood returns for its fourth season next month.
