Acclaimed Indian actress Kangana Ranaut is officially heading to Hollywood, making her debut in a psychological horror film that promises to showcase a darker, edgier side of the star. Known for her powerful performances in Indian cinema, Ranaut’s move to international screens signals a bold new chapter in her career.
The untitled project will be helmed by Oscar-nominated director Jennifer Kent, best known for The Babadook, and is said to be set in rural New England, where Ranaut will play a tormented woman haunted by visions tied to her ancestral past. Sources close to the production say the film will explore themes of trauma, identity, and generational curses—marking a significant genre shift for the Bollywood star.
