"Atlanta" star Zazie Beetz is in talks to join Kristen Stewart in the Jean Seberg biopic "Against All Enemies," sources tell Variety.
Beetz's role in the movie is unknown at this time. Anthony Mackie, Jack O'Connell, Margaret Qualley, and Colm Meaney are also starring. Benedict Andrews is directing from a script by Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse.
Against All Enemies centers around attempts by the FBI to discredit Seberg through its Cointelpro program in retaliation for her support of the Black Panther Party.

"Against All Enemies" producers are "La La Land" producer Fred Berger, Brian Kavanaugh-Jones of Automatik, Kate Garwood, Stephen Hopkins, and Andrew Levitas of Metalwork Pictures. Memento Films International is handling international sales. UTA and Endeavor Content are repping North America.
