Jan. 5 (UPI) -- Detroit and Sing Street actor Jack Reynor is set to star in Strange Angel, a Ridley Scott-produced drama set in 1930s Los Angeles.
Reynor will play Jack Parsons, "a brilliant and ambitious blue-collar worker... who started as a janitor at a chemical factory but had fantastical dreams that led him to birth the unknown discipline of American rocketry," a news release from CBS All Access said, adding: "Along the way, he fell into a mysterious world that included sex magick rituals at night, and he became a disciple of occultist Aleister Crowley. Parsons used Crowley's teachings of self-actualization to support his unimaginable and unprecedented endeavor to the stars."
