Jack White will appear in Martin Scorsese’s new film, Killers of the Flower Moon. He joins fellow musicians Sturgill Simpson and Jason Isbell alongside Jesse Plemons, Robert De Niro, and Leonardo DiCaprio.

The news was revealed when the film’s music supervisor Randall Poster appeared on screenwriter Brian Koppelman’s podcast, The Moment. Koppelman asks, “Does Jason Isbell play music in it? …He’s just acting only?”

Poster answered saying, “Yeah, he’s terrific in it. Jason Isbell, Jack White… there’s, like, four musicians in the movie who don’t play music.” You can listen to the podcast below, the conversation begins around the 57:09 mark.

Killers of the Flower Moon is based on the 2017 nonfiction book of the same name. No release date has been confirmed.

The role marks White’s first film role since 2003’s Cold Mountain.
