In discussions for a role in “The Masque of the Red Death,” an updated adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s chilling tale with the same title (according to The Hollywood Reporter). Previously, Sydney Sweeney from ‘Euphoria’ was linked to the project, but had to withdraw due to scheduling issues.

In an attempt to escape the devastating effects of a plague, Prince Prospero retreats to his abbey. To while away the time, he organizes a grand masked ball for the affluent society, which takes place in seven distinctly colored rooms throughout the venue.

In reports, it’s said that Madison portrays both a noblewoman and her twin sister who has been living among the common folk. She manages to gain access to a grand ball undercover, but her presence there brings about grave outcomes.

At present, not many more facts are available about “The Masque of the Red Death.” Further details about the cast will be disclosed prior to the commencement of filming, which is anticipated to begin by the end of this year or early in 2026.

In addition to her role, Madison has been confirmed to appear in the horror movie “Reptilia,” which was initially announced back in May, and she’ll be sharing the screen with Kirsten Dunst.

In simpler terms, the film penned jointly by Alejandro Landes Echavarría (of “Monos” fame) narrates the tale of a dental hygienist who gets enticed by an enigmatic mermaid and finds himself ensnared in the illicit world of Florida’s exotic animal trafficking.
