The five-part psychological thriller, which will launch next year, sees Whitehall play Adam Healey, a charming 'manny' who infiltrates the brash, wealthy Tanner family in order to destroy them.
The synopsis for Malice, which is a co-production with Expectation and Tailspin, says: "Set in London and Greece, this psychological thriller is full of dark family secrets, manipulation and betrayal, and it asks the question, why does Adam despise Jamie Tanner so much?"
Duchovny plays Jamie Tanner, while van Houten plays his wife Nat and Harry Gilby (Boarders), Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen (Swallows and Amazons) and Phoenix Laroche (Trying) play their children.

Jack Whitehall said: "What an incredible 18 weeks it’s been – from shooting in London in February to ending in 37-degree heat in Paros, the whole shoot has been an amazing experience and I couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve achieved.
"I feel so lucky to have been able to go to work everyday with so many insanely talented people on this job. I can’t wait for you to see the end result when it launches worldwide next year on Prime Video!"
