Sweeney becomes the biggest name to join the forthcoming adaptation of Lindsey Anderson Beer’s debut novel Hollow, with the filmmaker and author set to write and direct the adaptation. Sweeney’s new production company, Honey Trap, will also produce in another big leap for the actress, model and entrepreneur.

Suffice to say, the Maxim Hot 100 bombshell is keeping plenty busy, including work on her jaw-dropping new lingerie brand, SYRN. Beer previously directed 2023 feature Pet Sematary: Bloodlines, while the iconic 1820 short story was previously adapted for the big screen in 1999 by Tim Burton and starred Christina Ricci alongside Johnny Depp in a moody retelling.

The Hollywood Reporter notes that, at first glimpse, its writer Beer is “aiming to blend gothic and erotic thriller elements,” with Sweeney taking on the role of Katrina Van Tassel. In the book and its film adaptation, Van Tassel receives attention from both from Ichabod Crane and Brom Bones. Suffice to say, Sweeney’s acting chops are rounding into fine form.
