Black Voices has learned that Kevin Phillips ('Notorious') and Shannon Kane ('All My Children') have been added to the cast of 'S.W.A.T.: Fire Fight,' which is set to begin principal photography.

The film will be directed by Benny Boom ('Next Day Air') and stars Gabriel Macht, Carly Pope, Robert Patrick, Giancarlo Esposito, Gino Pesi, Nicholas Gonzalez, Micah Hauptman and Matt Bushell.

Based on the hit TV show of the same name, 'S.W.A.T.' follows Paul Cutler (Macht), an officer sent to train the Detroit S.W.A.T. team on new antiterrorism and homeland security techniques. As an outsider, Cutler is having a hard time settling in to his assignment and often encounters resistance from his new captain and the team he must lead. But as he adjusts to his new job, he finds himself in a budding romance with police psychologist Kim Byers (Pope).

Unexpectedly, a routine hostage call turns deadly, and a relentless ex-government agent named Walter Hatch (Patrick) vows revenge on Cutler and the entire team. Cutler must use his considerable training and knowledge to save his teammates and defeat a trained killer.

'S.W.A.T.: Fire Fight' is a production of Neal H. Moritz's original film with Stage 6 Films.

Kane and Phillips play members of the elite squad unit, while Esposito plays Cutler's reluctant Detroit team leader.

Kane, who plays Natalia, Jesse Hubbard's daughter on 'All My Children,' was recently seen on the big screen opposite Richard Gere in Antoine Fuqua's 'Brooklyn's Finest.'

Phillips played Mark Pitts, co-manager of the late rapper Christopher "The Notorious B.I.G." Wallace in 'Notorious.' The New York native is also set to star opposite Terrence Howard and Bryan Cranston from TV's 'Breaking Bad' in the upcoming film 'Red Tails,' a story written and produced by George Lucas that chronicles the Tuskegee Airmen.
