Lily James is joining the horror-thriller Seasons. The Pam & Tommy star has been cast in Seasons, an upcoming horror-thriller from Amazon MGM Studios that marks director Drew Hancock's follow-up to the breakout hit Companion.
The film—previously titled My Wife and I Bought a Ranch—is based on a viral horror short story by Matt & Harrison Query that originally appeared on Reddit. That pedigree gives the studio a foundation it clearly sees as having franchise potential.
Hancock's Companion was a critical success that demonstrated horror audiences' appetite for intelligent storytelling in the genre. He is now directing Seasons with James as his lead, a notable shift for the British actress known for period dramas and high-profile celebrity biopics.
Plot details remain under wraps, but if the Reddit story's viral status is any indication, Seasons taps into something unsettling—the kind of premise that generates theories in comment sections.
James has worked across film, from Cinderella to Pamela Anderson in Pam & Tommy. In Seasons, she will work in the horror genre for Amazon MGM. The casting has generated interest among horror fans about what she will bring to the character.
Production details and a release timeline have not been announced yet.
