Orange Is the New Black star Madeline Brewer has joined the cast of Captive State, the upcoming sci-fi thriller from director Rupert Wyatt (Rise of the Planet of the Apes), which is due to go into production this coming week.
The film takes place in Chicago “decades after the inhabitancy of alien forces, and explores the lives of two sides of the conflict: the collaborators and dissidents.”
Brewer joins a cast that includes John Goodman (Kong: Skull Island), Vera Farmiga (Bates Motel), Ashton Sanders (Moonlight), Jonathan Majors (When We Rise) and Colson Baker (Roadies), and will play Rula, “the intriguing love interest of Sanders’ character”.
