Leslie Odom, Jr., the incredibly talented Tony and Emmy Award winner famous for playing Aaron Burr in Hamilton, has consistently delivered amazing performances. His latest project, however, is a surprising turn – he’s starring in a horror movie about Sammy Davis, Jr. and his alleged connection to the Church of Satan. And to be clear, this isn’t a comedy or satire; it’s a genuinely spooky story.
According to Deadline, the upcoming horror film starring Leslie Odom Jr. is based on an article called “Dance With the Devil” by Alex Bhattacharji, which appeared in Rolling Stone in August 2024. It’s likely Odom will play a character named Sammy. Here’s a quick overview of the movie:
A TV pilot named Poor Devil brought Sammy Davis Jr. and Anton Szandor LaVey – the founder of the Church of Satan – together, sparking an unlikely friendship.
Writer Bhattacharji calls the original article that this film is based on a moving story about a deeply isolated man, Davis, and his journey to find belonging. He describes it as an exciting and fast-paced narrative that tackles important and relevant topics like race, sexuality, politics, faith, popular trends, and the changing culture of the time.
Leslie Odom Jr. is expected to deliver a fantastic performance in this movie. Davis is a highly respected and influential figure who likely inspired Odom’s career. Currently, there’s no information available about when the movie will be released or who else will be starring in it.
