Get ready for a mind-bending sci-fi adventure! Daniel Kaluuya, the versatile actor known for his powerful performances, is rumored to be in discussions for a leading role in an intriguing new film.
The project, titled 'Hotel Hotel Hotel Hotel', is a sci-fi thriller directed by Michael Shanks, who made his mark with the critically acclaimed 'Together'. But here's where it gets controversial... the film's premise is a unique twist on the classic escape narrative.
'Hotel Hotel Hotel Hotel' follows a man who finds himself trapped in a mysterious hotel room, a solitary prisoner in a mind-bending maze. The key to his escape? Teamwork - with himself! That's right, this thriller explores the concept of self-collaboration in a captivating way.
Shanks, who wrote the script that made the 2021 Black List, is not only directing but also producing this intriguing tale. And this is the part most people miss: A24, known for their unique and thought-provoking films, has picked up the project as a negative pickup.
The film will be produced by a talented team, including Mike Cowap and Emma Fitzsimmons of Princess Pictures, and Adam McKay and Todd Schulman of HyperObject Industries. Princess Pictures has a history with Shanks, having produced his directorial debut 'Together', which was a horror rom-com sensation, selling out at Sundance 2025 and grossing over $32M worldwide.
Kaluuya, fresh from his roles in Jordan Peele's 'Nope' and Chris Rock's 'Misty Green', has a diverse range of credits. From 'Sicario' and 'Kick-Ass 2' to his breakout role in Peele's 'Get Out', which grossed an impressive $260M WW, he's proven his versatility. He also starred in the blockbuster 'Black Panther', directed by Ryan Coogler, and won a Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of Fred Hampton in 'Judas and the Black Messiah'.
Kaluuya's representatives include WME, B-Side Management, and Johnson Shapiro Slewett Kole. Shanks is also represented by WME, Untitled Entertainment, and attorney Chris Abramson.
This project promises to be a captivating blend of sci-fi and psychological thriller elements. With Kaluuya's involvement, it's sure to be a thought-provoking watch.
