Details as to the role Doumit is playing are under wraps. She’s set to star opposite previously announced leads Lily Sullivan and David Rysdahl.
Falling in the tradition of ’90s domestic thrillers but with a modern, technological twist, the film watches as a man (Rysdahl) acquires an Artificially Intelligent android (Sullivan) to help him cope with the recent loss of his deceased wife. In an attempt to create a truly sentient partner, the man inadvertently turns a harmless lovebot into a deadly soulmate.
Kate Dolan (You Are Not My Mother) is directing the pic, described as significantly more risqué than M3GAN. She also rewrote an original draft from Rafael Jordan (Salvage Marines), which was based on a story by James Wan, Ingrid Bisu and Jordan. Wan and Jason Blum will produce, with Michael Clear and Judson Scott of Wan’s Atomic Monster exec producing alongside Ingrid Bisu. Alayna Glasthal is the executive overseeing the project for Atomic Monster.
SOULM8TE was put into motion following the huge surprise success of M3GAN, a horror thriller centered on a life-like, robotic doll, which broke out in January 2023 with over $181 million at the global box office. A sequel, titled M3GAN 2.0, with Allison Williams and Violet McGraw returning, is also currently in the works for a June 27, 2025 release in theaters.
