Halsey is set to star in “Replacer,” a horror film described as “psycho-sexual,” with Avan Jogia directing and Lily (Lilly) Wachowski serving as an executive producer. Both outlets report that Jogia also co-writes the project with Halsey, positioning the singer as a lead actor while contributing to the script. The film is outlined with a premise involving Proxy, played by Halsey, who is stranded in Montreal and encounters an alluring artist and his circle of friends, who are connected to an underground situation.
Rolling Stone and Deadline also align on the project’s core creative team: Avan Jogia’s directorial role and Wachowski’s executive producing credit. Details beyond the synopsis and the production roles are not specified in the provided excerpts, including release timing or additional cast. The project is presented as an emerging “genre-mashing” horror effort, with the collaboration drawing on both established music stardom and filmmakers credited to the production.
