Jack Reynor and Lily James Join Drew Hancock’s Horror Film ‘Seasons’ at Amazon MGM Studios

Amazon MGM Studios has tapped Jack Reynor to star in the horror film Seasons, where he will appear opposite Lily James, according to Deadline. The casting marks Reynor’s next genre project following his role in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, a film that has also helped position him for additional mainstream horror work.

Seasons is being directed by Drew Hancock, the director on the project announced by Deadline. The film will draw from a story that first circulated online as a viral horror short, credited to Matt and Harrison Query, who published the original piece on Reddit before it gained broader attention.

Deadline reports that Seasons is based on that original viral short story by the Query brothers, adapting it for a feature-length format under Amazon MGM Studios. The creative team’s next steps after the casting announcement include finalizing the film’s production lineup and moving forward with the scheduled development work that comes with completing key casting decisions.

For Reynor, the move continues a recent streak of prominent screen roles that have placed him in high-profile Hollywood productions. Deadline notes that Seasons comes after starring in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, situating Reynor within a contemporary horror pipeline that has focused on theatrical-scale effects and mainstream audience pull.

Lily James, named in Deadline’s report as the film’s co-star, is set to share the lead billing with Reynor in Hancock’s Seasons. The pairing brings together two actors with different recent film and television footprints, and the project’s reliance on an already-recognizable horror narrative online suggests an effort to translate audience-familiar material into a studio feature.

Seasons also reflects Amazon MGM Studios’ continuing strategy of developing horror content from popular internet-origin stories. Deadline’s report ties the film’s underlying premise to the Query brothers’ viral short, tracing the property’s path from a platform like Reddit to a studio production designed for a wider release.

Deadline did not provide a release date in the report, nor did it outline production start timing. With casting now confirmed, the next publicly relevant items expected for Seasons are typically additional cast announcements, the release plan through Amazon MGM distribution channels, and more details on the script, production schedule, and supporting creative team.
