AceShowbiz - Belmont Cameli has been cast in the role of Brom Bones for a new adaptation of Sleepy Hollow featuring Sydney Sweeney, Comicbookmovie reports. This fresh take on the classic tale is described as an erotic thriller, with Sweeney playing Katrina Van Tassel in a movie titled Hollow.

Imdb confirms Cameli’s casting as Brom Bones, while Deadline adds that the film is based on Lindsey Anderson Beer’s forthcoming debut novel, also called Hollow. Beer is not only adapting the screenplay but also directing the project, which reimagines the story of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow through Katrina Van Tassel’s perspective as the centerpiece of a supernatural love triangle. Production companies LuckyChap, Lab Brew, and Honey Trap—Sweeney’s own production banner—are collaborating on the film. Deadline further notes that Sony Pictures is actively searching for an actor to portray Ichabod Crane.

Sydney Sweeney is widely recognized for her role as Cassie Howard in Euphoria and has recently earned acclaim for her performance in Lionsgate’s The Housemaid. She is both starring in and producing Hollow, marking another significant step in her career. Belmont Cameli, who recently appeared in the Prime Video series Off Campus, joins the cast as Brom Bones, adding to his growing profile after roles in projects like Until Dawn and The Alto Knights.

This new adaptation stands out by blending gothic horror with erotic thriller elements, giving Katrina Van Tassel a more active and complex role than traditional versions. As the film and novel are slated for coordinated release in 2027, Hollow represents a fresh, contemporary approach to a well-known American legend, with Sweeney and Cameli poised to bring new energy to these iconic characters.
