"Adam Scott grew up watching horror movies at, as he describes it, 'probably too young' an age. But he never set out to work specifically in the genre. Even still, horror seemed to follow him around from the very beginning."
"Most recently, he served as the lead in Hokum, an Irish horror movie from Oddity director Damian McCarthy. Again, though, it wasn't the genre that lured him to the project."
"Hokum opens in theaters on May 1st, and Scott plays a novelist named Ohm who ventures to a quaint hotel in Ireland to spread his parents' ashes."
Adam Scott, known for his role in Severance, has a history with horror films, starting with Hellraiser IV. His latest project, Hokum, directed by Damian McCarthy, features Scott as Ohm, a novelist who travels to Ireland to scatter his parents' ashes. The film showcases a quaint hotel with eerie elements, and Scott's character evolves from a difficult persona to someone more complex. His attraction to the project stemmed from the character and narrative rather than the horror genre itself.
