*“Parenthood” alum Joy Bryant and Chris Diamantopoulos of HBO’s “Silicon Valley” have been cast opposite Anna Camp and Genevieve Angels in the Sony/Amazon Studios pilot “Good Girls Revolt,” reports Deadline.com.

The project is set in 1969 at the beginning of the women’s rights movement when a group of young women at the hottest magazine in the world ask to be treated fairly, setting off a convulsive chain of events.

Bryant will play real life civil rights activist Eleanor Holmes Norton.
