Pacino, Lerman and Hinton are joined by a supporting cast that includes Lena Olin, Carol Kane, Saul Rubinek, Tiffany Boone, Louis Ozawa Changchien, Greg Austin and Dylan Baker. The press release also described their characters:

It’s easy to compare this to Inglourious Basterds as it is also historical fantasy about killing Nazis, but there is plenty of room for more takes. A ’70s period piece with Pacino in Heat mode mentoring a Donnie Brasco type in Lerman has lots of potential.Peele is also great at taking genres and twisting them. Get Out was a horror movie about race relations. His upcoming Weird City and Twilight Zone will tackle social issues as well. I’d expect more than simple Nazi killings, but if the show is just Al Pacino killing Nazis…that’s okay, too!
