. (Radio.com) The much-talked-about Hank Williams biopic I Saw The Light is getting closer to finalizing its cast. The part of Audrey Williams, who was Hank Williams' first wife, will be played by Elizabeth Olsen.

Known for her roles in Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Godzilla, Olsen is the younger sister of twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. She will play across from Tom Hiddleson, who was tapped as the role of Hank Williams earlier this year.

I Saw The Light is directed by Marc Abraham. Abraham wrote the screenplay for the film, which is based off of Colin Escott's Hank Williams biography.

According to Saving Country Music, there is an open casting call for smaller roles and extras next week in Louisiana. It will be held on Sept. 14 between 11 - 4 p.m. in Shreveport, La. Read more here.
