LaKeith Stanfield, Jason Clarke, Sam Claflin and Trevante Rhodes have officially joined the ensemble of ‘F.A.S.T.,’ the upcoming Taylor Sheridan-penned action feature in the works at Warner Bros. Pictures.
Directed by Ben Richardson — Sheridan’s longtime collaborator and the main director of his ‘1923’ series — the film is led by Brandon Sklenar in the role of a former special forces commando who has fallen on hard times after returning home. When the DEA calls on him to head up a covert strike team targeting CIA-protected drug dealers operating in his own town, the commando is forced back into a world of danger and moral compromise.

The newly announced castings will take on a mix of roles, ranging from DEA operatives to Sklenar’s ex-Delta Force teammates. Juliana Canfield is also set to appear, rounding out the principal cast.
‘F.A.S.T.’ is produced by David Heyman and Jeffrey Clifford of Heyday Films alongside Sheridan and Jenny Wood of Bosque Ranch Productions. Cameras are set to roll later in August.
