CANNES (Hollywood Reporter) - Backstreet Boy Nick Carter is making the jump to the big screen, signing on to star in the "Sleepy Hollow"-inspired horror thriller "Hollow."

The indie project also will mark the feature debut of "8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter" star Kaley Cuoco.

Budgeted at less than $5 million, "Hollow" is described as a present-day retelling of "Sleepy Hollow" set in a small New England town where a group of high school seniors learn that they are the direct descendants of those responsible for a tragic event that begins to replay itself. No director is set for the film.

Carter, who said he has spent a lot of time searching for the right film part, plays a high school jock and captain of the football team in a role that he describes as a "hormonal brute with a bit of a 'tude."

"It couldn't have been more perfect for what I was looking to achieve in making the move into acting," Carter said. "I didn't want it to be something that felt fake or just not right. The role itself is perfect. It's not too much; it's just enough to show people that I can do it."

Rounding out the cast alongside Carter and Cuoco are Nick Turturro, Judge Reinhold, Kevin Zegers, Joseph Masiello, Eileen Brennan, Stacy Keach and Melissa Schuman, the latter having had a brush with pop fame as part of the girl group Dream.

Wow , I love Kaley Cuoco and everything...the plot sounds like it could be good...but Nick Carter? I mean really, almost all movies with singers trying to act have bombed the box office! Sorry for being so negative lately guys! haha

yeah, i wont see it cause i can't stand Nick Carter. But the only singers who had successful movies are Brittney Spears and Mandy Moore.

the hollow comes out in early october, its a teen version of the sleepy hollow, kaley says she is scared of scary moives and she was really scared making this moive but once she relized it was all fake it did not bother her as much, Amy Davison went over to the set last week to see how kaley was doing, i'm only going to go see it because kaley is in it but i hope its not going to be bad, but come on can't they have a real actor in the moive? im not a big fan of nick but come on singers should not be acting they are bad at it but thats just me
