Jonathan Rhys Meyers has joined the cast of Roland Emmerich's Stonewall, the story of the 1969 police raid of the Stonewall Inn in New York's Greenwich Village that became one of the defining moments of the gay rights movement.
Deadline.com says the film tells the story of Danny (Jeremy Irvine), who is thrown out of his home and flees to New York, where he is introduced to the regulars at the Stonewall Inn.
Rhys Meyers will play the "suave" Trevor, whom Danny meets in the bar.
The film will shoot in Montreal and the surrounding area.
