With Sydney Sweeney aboard to star in and produce new horror movie ‘Hollow,’ word lands that ‘Masters of the Universe’ actor Nicholas Galitzine is now in talks to join the cast.

If everything works out, Deadline brings news that Galitzine will play Ichabod Crane, who clashes with the Headless Horseman.

Horror Thriller

‘Hollow,’ which Sony snapped up to produce, sees screenwriter Lindsey Anderson Beer directing and adapting her own debut novel.

What’s the story of ‘Hollow’?

The novel is described as a bold reimagining of 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,' told through the perspective of Katrina Van Tassel. Reframing one of literature’s most iconic heroines, the novel positions Van Tassel not as a romantic prize, but as the central figure in a dangerous mystery and seductive supernatural love triangle.

This story blends gothic atmosphere, psychological intrigue, and erotic thriller elements into a contemporary, high-concept reinvention of the classic tale. And the book? Not due until fall 2027.

Sweeney will play Van Tassel, while ‘Off Campus’ Belmont Cameli has the role of Brom Bones.

Where else can we see Nicholas Galitzine?

Galitzine will next be seen in ‘The Mosquito Bowl,’ which recently hit theaters ahead of it landing on Netflix on November 25th. He’ll also return as Prince Henry for Prime Video’s ‘Red, White & Royal Wedding,’ the follow-up to hit rom-com ‘Red, White & Royal Blue.’
