2. The One (TBA)
Hoult, Melissa Barrera, and Lana Condor are poised to lead the cast of ‘The One,’ an upcoming horror project by the creative duo of writer Kevin Armento and director Jaki Bradley. This compelling narrative follows the journey of Taylor (Melissa Barrera), as she embarks on a quest for love by becoming a contestant on a reality dating show. As the competition narrows down to herself and two other women, all vying for the affections of Mason (Hoult), the illusion of the show begins to unravel and the once-mundane game takes on a chilling reality.
Set against the backdrop of opulent beachfront settings, fairy-tale dates, and endless champagne, ‘The One’ explores how the pursuit of love can morph into an all-consuming obsession and how friendly competition can devolve into treacherous acts. Hoult not only graces the screen but also takes on the role of a producer in this project, which is currently in the pre-production phase. More details regarding the project are awaited.
