Topher Grace and Terrence Howard are in talks to join New Line's legal drama The Crusaders, according to Variety.

Directed by Alex Graves (The West Wing), the movie will focus on the 1954 Supreme Court case of Brown v Board of Education. The case saw recent law school graduate Jack Greenberg and NAACP Legal Defence Fund head Thurgood Marshall fight against segregation in education.

The original script was written by The West Wing's Paul Redford and Lawrence O'Donnell, based on Greenberg's own memoirs. A new version is being written by John Romano.
