Trai Byers is best known for his role on Empire and Aja Naomi King for her role on ABC's How To Get Away With Murder.
Both TV shows are coming to an end this spring but it seems like Byers and King are just getting started.
According to Deadline , the pair will now star in The 24th:
“The 24th tells the true story of the all-black Twenty-Fourth United States Infantry Regiment, and the Houston Riot of 1917. The Houston Riot was a mutiny by 156 African American soldiers in response to the brutal violence and abuse at the hands of Houston police officers. The riot lasted two hours and led to the death of nine civilians, four policemen and two soldiers. It resulted in the largest murder trial in history, which sentenced a total of 19 men to execution, and 41 to life sentences.”
The 24th is now being filmed in North Carolina.
It's a great time in the Byers' household. Check out the news about Trai Byers' wife, Grace Byers.
