Shia LaBeouf and Robert Redford have both joined the political action thriller The Company You Keep, which Redford will also direct, reports Darkhorizons.com.

Redford is just coming off of The Conspirator, which had a meaty cast, while LaBeouf just headlined his final Transformers film, Dark of the Moon, which is raking in the clams worldwide. Redford will play "a former radical at the centre of this nationwide manhunt" and LaBeouf, "the determined journalist doggedly chasing him and his story."

Production is moving pretty fast and the film will shoot in Vancouver this coming September.
