‘The Temple’ – Daniel Zolghadri in Talks to Star in Sci-fi Horror Film About Ghost-Seeking Millionaire

Actor Daniel Zolghadri, star of upcoming disaster comedy Y2K and American Horror Stories guest star, is currently negotiating for the lead role in sci-fi horror movie The Temple, Deadline reports today.

Temple hails from the Canadian writing and directing duo Yonah Lewis and Calvin Thomas.

The sci-fi horror film follows “an orphaned millionaire (Zolghadri) dedicates his life and considerable fortune to finding the ghosts of his parents with the help of a skeptical radiation scientist.”

There’s not much to go on here, but what little there is intrigues. A ghost-seeking millionaire? A radiation scientist? It sets up the potential for an interesting cross between science and the supernatural.

Zolghadri also recently appeared in Prime Video’s Tales from the Loop and A24’s Funny Pages.

Katie Bird Nolan and Lindsay Tapscott will produce for their Babe Nation Films, alongside the writer-director duo’s Lisa Pictures. Production is gearing up to begin soon, so stay tuned for more on this upcoming sci-fi horror movie.
