The movie is based on David Grann’s best-selling book. Here’s a plot summary of the film, which is set “in 1920s Oklahoma and depicts a string of brutal murders of Osage Nation Native Americans, which came to be known as the Reign of Terror. The Osage Nation, who were the richest people per capita in the world, were killed one by one after oil was discovered on their land. As the death toll rose, the newly-created FBI took up the case and unraveled a chilling conspiracy and one of the most monstrous crimes in American history.”

Lily who is a descendant of the Blackfeet and Nez Perce tribes, will play the role of Mollie Burkhart, an Osage married to Ernest Burkhart, who is nephew of a powerful local rancher. As previously announced, Leonardo DiCaprio will portray Burkhart and Robert De Niro will play his uncle.

The film reportedly cost around $200 million to produce, and does not yet have a release date.
