Luis Chavez, Arlene Tur, Ross McCall, Brian Tee and Jocko Sims will 'Crash' onto the small screen

The first five actors have joined the ensemble cast of Starz' small screen adaptation of the Oscar-winning "Crash."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Luis Chavez, Arlene Tur, Ross McCall, Brian Tee and Jocko Sims are set for the new version of "Crash." They won't be playing characters from the Paul Haggis film, but rest-assured that their lives will intermingle as they discover that everybody's just a little bit racist.

The trade paper has little snippet descriptions for all of the new characters.

Chavez ("Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles") will play Cesar, a young man attempting to immigrate to the United States.

Tur ("Grey's Anatomy") is set as Bebe, an actress-turned-cop.

Tee ("Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift") will play an EMT.

Perhaps best known for his long-time role as Jennifer Love Hewitt's significant other, McCall ("Band of Brothers") will play a joyriding police officer.

And Sims ("Dreamgirls") will play the driver to a successful record producer.
