Kat Graham will play Diana Ross in the Michael Jackson biopic.

The 34-year-old actress and singer is the latest star attached to appear in Antoine Fuqua’s film about the King of Pop as the cast of ‘Michael’ continues to take shape.

Kat will play the role of the iconic Supremes frontwoman, who was asked to introduce the Jackson 5 to the world and remained a constant influence on the ‘Beat It’ hit maker.

Larenz Tate has been cast at the Motown Records founder Berry Gordy, who helped redefine music by giving acts including the Jackson 5, Diana Ross and The Supremes and Stevie Wonder the platform to succeed.

Other new cast members include Jessica Sula as Michael’s older sister La Toya Jackson, Liv Symone as soul legend Gladys Knight, Kevin Shinick as Dick Clark and KeiLyn Durrel Jones as Jackson’s security-turned-friend Bill Bray.

Meanwhile, Kendrick Sampson is to portray music industry titan Quincy Jones who first met Michael when the late singer was just 12 years old and went on to collaborate with him on the hit albums ‘Off The Wall’, ‘Thriller’ and ‘Bad’.
