'Hokum', a supernatural thriller directed by the talented Damian McCarthy, has finally announced its release date. Mark your calendars for May 1, 2026, as this spine-tingling adventure will premiere in theaters, courtesy of Neon.
But here's where it gets intriguing: we get a glimpse of the incredible Adam Scott ('Severance', 'Krampus') in his role as a horror novelist with a haunting tale of his own. Scott's character embarks on a journey to a secluded Irish inn, a place shrouded in mystery and rumored to be haunted by a witch. Little does he know, his peaceful trip will turn into a nightmare!
The film also stars Peter Coonan ('The Alienist: Angel of Darkness') and David Wilmot ('Station Eleven'), adding to the star-studded cast.
Behind the scenes, we have a powerhouse production team. Roy Lee and Steven Schneider, known for their work on 'Weapons' and 'Insidious', respectively, join forces with Derek Dauchy, Mairtín de Barra, and others to bring this chilling story to life.
And this is the part most people miss: the executive producers, Ben Ross, Dan Kagan, Rami Yasin, and Andrew Childs, have a crucial role in shaping the film's vision.
Steven Schneider previously shared his excitement, stating, "With Damian McCarthy's innovative direction and Adam Scott's exceptional talent, 'Hokum' promises to be an extraordinary experience. We're thrilled to share our creation with audiences worldwide."
