Immaculate director Michael Mohan is building anticipation for Sydney Sweeney's daring performance in his upcoming R-rated horror movie. Set to hit theaters next month, Immaculate features Sweeney in the role of Cecilia, a woman who becomes part of a prestigious convent in Italy only to discover its sinister secrets. This collaboration between Mohan and Sweeney, following their work on the erotic thriller The Voyeurs in 2021, promises a unique and chilling experience.
In a recent interview with Total Film (via GamesRadar), Mohan provides insight into Sweeney's role in Immaculate. The director hints at Sweeney's impressive display of horror acting skills, particularly in the film's climactic final moments. For more details on Sweeney's performance, read Mohan's full statement below:
Immaculate delivers a terror that is rooted in something genuine, profound, personal, and intense. The climax of the film showcases Sydney's most unhinged performance to date, solidifying her status as a scream queen without question.

The Voyeurs received poor reviews from critics and currently holds a disappointing 45% on Rotten Tomatoes, with a slightly higher audience score of 46%. On the other hand, Immaculate marks a significant shift in tone for Mohan and Sweeney, as indicated by the trailers which suggest it is quite different from their previous film.
Apart from Sweeney, the cast of Immaculate includes Simona Tabasco, Álvaro Morte, Benedetta Porcaroli, Dora Romano, Giampiero Judica, and Giorgio Colangeli.
A key plot point in the film "Immaculate" revolves around Cecilia's immaculate conception. The trailers suggest that she may be pregnant with something other than a normal baby, possibly even the Antichrist. The promotional material teases shocking moments of violence, particularly involving nuns in the convent. The movie has been given an R rating for its strong and bloody violent content, grisly images, nudity, and some language.
In contrast to "The Voyeurs," which was released directly on Prime Video, "Immaculate" will have a theatrical release by Neon. The success of "Anyone But You" at the box office indicates that Sweeney has drawing power with audiences. The reception of the romantic comedy could be an indicator of how Mohan's upcoming horror film will perform. While the reception of "Immaculate" remains uncertain, it is clear that the final minutes of the film will be a wild and intense experience.
