Belmont Cameli has joined Sydney Sweeney in Sony Pictures’ upcoming film “Hollow,” a supernatural erotic thriller reimagining “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” Set for a fall 2027 release alongside Lindsey Anderson Beer’s debut novel, the project casts Cameli as Brom Bones opposite Sweeney’s Katrina Van Tassel, with production underway by Honey Trap, Lab Brew, and LuckyChap.
Casting and Creative Roster for Sony Pictures ‘Hollow’
The feature film adaptation shifts the classic Washington Irving folklore into a mystery-driven supernatural thriller told directly through the perspective of Katrina Van Tassel. In the original 1820 text, Katrina stood at the center of a bitter rivalry between the superstitious schoolmaster Ichabod Crane and the local antagonist Brom Bones. Sony Pictures has locked in Belmont Cameli to portray Brom Bones. Cameli’s recent credits include a breakout role on the Prime Video series “Off Campus,” alongside appearances in Sony’s “Until Dawn” and Warner Bros.’ “Alto Knights.”
Sydney Sweeney stars as Katrina Van Tassel. Sweeney is coming off a box office run last winter with Lionsgate’s “The Housemaid” and prepares for the release of its sequel, “The Housemaid’s Secret.” Casting remains open for the role of Ichabod Crane.
Production Infrastructure and Literary Origins
Lindsey Anderson Beer takes the helm as writer and director for “Hollow.” The cinematic project functions as a companion piece to Beer’s forthcoming debut novel, scheduled for publication in the fall of 2027. This marks the fourth feature film directed by Beer, whose previous credits include Netflix’s 2018 modern high school retelling “Sierra Burgess Is a Loser” and the 2023 Paramount+ horror prequel “Pet Sematary: Bloodlines.”
Production duties are split across multiple banners. Sweeney’s newly launched company, Honey Trap, produces the feature via a first-look deal with Sony. Beer joins the production team through her Lab Brew banner, alongside LuckyChap.
