"Aquaman" actor Ludi Lin has joined the cast of "Son of the South", directed by Barry Alexander Brown.
Brown is also executive producing the civil rights-era drama along with Spike Lee, reported Variety.
Based on Bob Zellner's autobiography "The Wrong Side of Murder Creek" and written by Brown, the film follows the true-life story of Zellner, an Alabama native and the grandson of a Birmingham Klansman who is pulled into the very centre of the civil rights movement.
Lin will play Derek Ang, an Asian-American who gives himself to the Freedom Movement in the Deep South and ends up fighting racism alongside the Freedom Riders.
