Sydney Sweeney’s upcoming horror film ‘Immaculate’ has been acquired by Neon
The firm will distribute the ‘Euphoria’ and ‘Anyone But You’ actress’ latest movie after landing North American rights to it, which was produced by Sydney, 26, along with Black Bear and Middle Child Pictures.
Neon is planning a theatrical release on a yet-to-be-determined date.
Directed by Michael Mohan and written by Andrew Lobel, ‘Immaculate’ follows Sydney’s character Cecilia – a woman of devout faith who is offered a new role at an illustrious Italian convent.
Her warm welcome to the European countryside is soon interrupted as Cecilia discovers her new home has dark and horrifying secrets lurking under its pleasant façade.
Principal photography on the project wrapped earlier in 2023 with Simona Tabasco, Alvaro Morte, Benedetta Porcaroli and Dora Romano also starring alongside Sydney.
The actress produced the movie with her fiancé Jonathan Davino for Fifty-Fifty Films, alongside Middle Child Pictures’ David Bernad, who developed the project with Sydney following their work together on ‘The White Lotus’.
Variety reported Black Bear “fully financed and represented the international sales rights” for the film, with the company’s John Friedberg and Christopher Casanova serving as executive producers on the film alongside Will Greenfield. ‘Immaculate’ marks the second recent collaboration with Neon and Black Bear after Michael Mann’s ‘Ferrari’, which starred Adam Driver as sportscar mastermind Enzo Ferrari, and which opened in cinemas on Christmas Day.
