YELLOWSTONE Actor Luke Grimes Set to Star in Sci-Fi Thriller HELLO STRANGER

Luke Grimes, star of the hit series Yellowstone, as well as the Fifty Shades franchise, has signed on to star in the sci-fi thriller Hello Stranger. The film is being directed by April Mullen (Wander), from a screenplay penned by Ryan Christopher Churchill.

Here’s the synopsis:

In Hello Stranger, a woman attempts to replace her newly deceased husband, Evan (Grimes), with an android simulant. Although SIM Evan appears like human Evan in every way, Faye does not feel the same love for SIM Evan as it does for her. SIM Evan tries to win Faye back, while at the same time, he is on the run from a government agent chasing down SIMs who have become “conscious” and could be a threat to humankind.

Mullen said of the project:

“The idea of creating an A.I. simulate to replace a deceased loved one is more probable in our near future than many people would care to consider. Hello Stranger explores these powerful themes and ideas in a low-fi setting that’s eerily relevant. Bringing this world to life alongside an actor like Luke who instills humanity and depth into every frame of his work is a director’s dream.”

Casting on the other key roles is underway. This sounds like an interesting concept. Will you be checking out the movie Hello Stranger?
