Logan Marshall-Green is the latest to join the ranks of actors portraying real life icons, according to Deadline. The “Prometheus” star has been set to play famed playwright Tennessee Williams in “Lonely Hunter”, a new biopic of Williams’ pal and fellow writer Carson McCullers, who will be played by Jena Malone.

Deborah Kampmeier will direct from a script she co-wrote with Sarah Shulman later this year. Malone will play McCullers as she wrote her first novel, “The Heart is a Lonely Hunter”, at aged 23, but suffered from various physical and emotional struggles throughout her life. Marshall-Green’s Williams was her best friend and longtime confidant, and casting continues for McCullers’ other larger than life group of friends, which also included Truman Capote, Benjamin Britten and Gypsy Rose Lee.
