Jesse Plemons Joins Leonardo DiCaprio in ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’

Jesse Plemons has joined the cast of Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon,” an individual with knowledge of the deal told TheWrap.

“Killers of the Flower Moon” is based on David Grann’s book of the same name and is set in 1920s Oklahoma. The film depicts the serial murders of members of the oil-wealthy Osage Nation — a string of brutal crimes that came to be known as the Reign of Terror.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro star in the film, which is set at Apple. Plemons is set to take on the role of Tom White, the lead FBI agent investigating the murders, which was the role DiCaprio was originally going to play before he stepped to a secondary lead role.
