Sydney Sweeney is really lining up the interesting projects lately. The Euphoria star is going to be appearing in the Sony Marvel movie Madame Web, is set to be the new Barbarella, will be starring in the thriller The Registration for producer Bradley Fuller and the writers of the Hellraiser reboot, and is also working with Fuller on the Platinum Dunes production The Caretaker. Now it has been announced that Sweeney is going to re-team with Michael Mohan, who directed her in the erotic thriller The Voyeurs, for the psychological horror film Immaculate.
Scripted by Andrew Lobel, Immaculate will see Sweeney taking on the role of Cecilia, a woman of devout faith who is offered a fulfilling new role at an illustrious Italian convent. Her warm welcome to the picture-perfect Italian countryside is soon interrupted as it becomes clearer to Cecilia that her new home harbors some dark and horrifying secrets.
Sweeney is producing the film through her company Fifty-Fifty Films, alongside Jonathan Davino. Also producing are Teddy Schwarzman and Michael Heimler of Black Bear Pictures and David Bernad, who developed the project with Sweeney after they worked together on the Emmy-winning series The White Lotus. Will Greenfield and Black Bear’s John Friedberg and Christopher Casanova serve as executive producers. Black Bear Pictures is fully financing Immaculate and will be handling international sales.
I haven’t watched The Voyeurs yet, and I’m actually not very familiar with Sweeney’s work up to this point, but Immaculate sounds interesting to me and I’m looking forward to seeing how it turns out. Much like I’m looking forward to Barbarella, The Registration, and The Caretaker. (Madame Web I’m more hesitant about, given Sony’s Marvel track record.)
