Halsey attended the Kering Women in Motion Awards during the 79th Cannes Film Festival on May 17th.

Halsey attended the “Sheep in the Box” screening at Cannes Film Festival on May 16th.

Halsey and Avan Jogia attended “The House of Magnum” after-party celebrating fashion, pleasure and craftsmanship during the 79th Cannes Film Festival at Palais Stephanie on May 14th. Halsey was also photographed with Law Roach, Heidi Klum, and Jessica Mir.

DEADLINE reports Halsey is set to star in “Replacer,” a psycho-sexual horror written by Halsey and Avan Jogia, with Jogia directing and Lilly Wachowski exec-producing.

The synopsis reads:

“Stranded in Montreal, Proxy (Halsey), a troubled DJ, meets an alluring artist and his group of friends who run an underground radio station. The station’s broadcast becomes warped by a mysterious signal hidden deep beneath the city’s subway system. Proxy must escape before the sound turns her, and her new friends, into something raw, primal, and unrecognizable.”

The project is launching sales at this week’s Cannes market, with CAA Media Finance and UTA Independent Film Group representing North American rights and Film Mode Entertainment handling international sales.

Lilly Wachowski commented: “Avan and Halsey’s script is a surreal hyper-dive into a twitchy, conspiratorial genre mashing snarl of horror/thriller/comedy, set against the grit and grime of a rarely glimpsed Montreal subculture. This thing is packed! I have the sense that Avan’s eyeballs have gulped down a steady diet of the films I grew up on- David Cronenberg, Alex Cox, Tony Scott, John Carpenter. Anarchists United is beyond excited to join the Replacer team and bring this super cool story to the screen!”

Jogia commented: “Replacer is a bright and electric club horror mashed together with a vulnerable romantic story about belonging and community. Come together. Leave as one.”

Halsey shared a heartfelt Instagram post for Mother’s Day alongside some cute new photos. She wrote:

had the loveliest Mother’s Day with my not-so-little boy yesterday, made beautiful and possible by @jogia 💛 I got lots of sweet gifts but the best one was Ender reading me an entire book cover to cover for the first time. I just sat there in awe, like my whole body was frozen with pride and connection and delirium at how quickly time flies. I became a mother 4 years and 10 months ago. At first, everything changed and I thought I’d never be myself again. Then, slowly, I felt it all settle back into place. I was arrogant before I had my son. I thought I’d be able to handle the changes and new demands effortlessly. I thought I was “built different”. But I was quickly humbled by the crashing realization that I’m actually built the same as everybody else. And it would exactly as hard for me as I had heard from so many other moms it was for them. Once I learned to embrace it and let go of my tight grip on needing control, it got a lot easier. It’s not the path that everyone wants or needs, but for me it was so right and so important. I love being a mom. It requires that I believe in magic.
