Apple Original Films said Thursday that indigenous actresses Tantoo Cardinal, Cara Jade Myers, JaNae Collins and Jillian Dion will star in Martin Scorsese’s upcoming feature Killers of the Flower Moon based on David Grann’s bestseller.

The four join the already announced cast of Leonardo DiCaprio, Jesse Plemons and Lily Gladstone. The movie, set in 1920s Oklahoma, depicts the serial murder of members of the oil-wealthy Osage Nation, a string of brutal crimes that came to be known as the Reign of Terror.

Cardinal,  whose credits include Dances With Wolves and Godless, will play the role of Lizzie Q, the mother of Mollie Burkhart, played by Gladstone.

Myers, Collins and Dion will play Mollie’s sisters, Anna, Reta and Minnie.

Scorsese is producing Killers of the Flower Moon off a screenplay by Eric Roth. Producing alongside the Oscar-winning filmmaker are Imperative Entertainment’s Dan Friedkin and Bradley Thomas and Appian Way Productions.
