by Thomas Tuna

Sony Pictures have nabbed the rights to Hollow, a new retelling of Sleepy Hollow which is set to star Sydney Sweeney, according to a report on Deadline. The film will be based on Lindsey Anderson Beer’s debut novel, the project will be directed, produced and adapted by Beer.

According to the source, the film will be 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. The story blends gothic atmosphere, psychological intrigue, and erotic thriller elements into a contemporary, high-concept reinvention of the classic tale.

As for Sweeney’s role, the answer will likely come as no surprise: Van Tassel.
