Nicholas Galitzine (Masters of the Universe, The Craft: Legacy) is in final talks to take on the role of Ichabod Crane in Hollow.

The film also stars Belmont Cameli, who will play Bones.

The new adaptation, Hollow, is based on the upcoming novel from Lindsey Anderson Beer, who is also set to direct.

Beer’s novel is a reimagining of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, told through the perspective of Katrina Van Tassel, played by Sweeney. 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 tale.

Deadline first reported on the casting.
