According to Deadline, Bakalova will join The Hate U Give’s Amandla Stenberg in Bodies, Bodies, Bodies, a project of which little is known plot-wise, but is being described as a “secret slasher film”. Modern Love’s Myha’la Herrold, and The King of Staten Island’s Pete Davidson are also in talks to star.
