The Flash actress Kiersey Clemons will star in the indie drama Hearts Beat Loud. The movie follows a Brooklyn record store owner who struggles to accept change as he’s forced to let go of both his shop and his daughter (Clemons) during her last summer before college.
The Hero director Brett Haley will helm the film from a script he co-wrote with Marc Basch. Production is expected to start this fall. Houston King, Sam Bisbee and Sam Slater will produce.
Clemons’ star has been rising fast following her breakout role in the indie hit Dope. She made such a big splash as Cassandra Diggy Andrews in Rick Famuyiwa’s coming-of-age film, that she soon landed the coveted role of Iris West in Warner Bros.’ The Flash starring Ezra Miller.
