Brie Larson has been cast alongside Michael B. Jordan in 'Just Mercy'.
The 28-year-old actress has signed up to star in the Destin Cretton-directed project, which is based on the best-selling memoir by Bryan Stevenson, who is the founder of the Equal Justice Initiative.
The initiative fights on behalf of the wrongly condemned and death-row prisoners who are in the US justice system.
The upcoming film will tell the story of Stevenson's first case, which focused on Walter McMillian, who was sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit.
Meanwhile, Brie is also set to star in the eagerly awaited 'Captain Marvel' movie, which is set for release in 2019.
