As AGC Studios successfully landed the film rights to the life story of Lauren Simmons, Variety reports that actress Kiersey Clemons has signed on to portray the role of the brilliant Wall Street trader in the studios’ forthcoming biographical film.
Simmons moved to New York right after she graduated from Kennesaw State University in 2016 with a degree in genetics and a minor in statistics.
Clemons is best known for her role in Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising starring alongside Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and Chloe Grace Moretz.
The film will also be produced by Eddie Galan and Starr Andreeff along with AGC’s Stuart Ford, Greg Shapiro and Glendon Palmer.
