Brendan Fraser has been cast in Martin Scorsese‘s forthcoming crime drama, Killers of the Flower Moon.

According to reports, The Mummy staple will be portraying the role of lawyer WS Hamilton. Killers of the Flower Moon is based on the nonfiction book of American journalist David Grann, which explores the murders of wealthy Osage people in the early 1920s after oil deposits were found underneath their land.

Fraser joins a strong cast comprised of Jesse Plemons as Tom White, Leonardo DiCaprio as Ernest Burkhart and Robert De Niro as William Hale. The film is penned by Eric Roth and produced by Scorsese alongside Imperative’s Dan Friedkin and Bradley Thomas and DiCaprio’s Appian Way Productions for Apple Studios and Imperative Entertainment. Filming is currently underway but a release date is yet to be announced.
