Yellowstone 1923 star Brandon Sklenar has signed up for a forthcoming romantic-thriller film boasting an all-star cast.

Following his breakthrough performance as Spencer Dutton in the popular Paramount+ prequel series, the actor has appeared in major productions including It Ends with Us, Drop, and The Housemaid.

Sklenar has now committed to starring in the forthcoming film Vegas: A Love Story, billed as a “sensual romance with thriller elements”.

Helmed by Oscar-nominated director Ramin Bahrani (The White Tiger, 99 Homes), production commenced this week in Las Vegas.

The 1923 star joins an impressive ensemble cast featuring Maika Monroe (Longlegs), Paul Dano (The Batman), Michael Shannon (Nuremberg), and Judy Greer (Ant-Man), reports <a href=”https://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/yellowstone-1923-brandon-sklenar-film-36587211″ rel=”Follow” target=”_self”>the Mirror</a>.

According to Deadline, the synopsis states: “Vegas: A Love Story unfolds beneath the glow of the Las Vegas Strip, where Dillon (Monroe), a gifted graphic designer hustling for work, falls into a passionate, unexpected romance with Freddy (Sklenar), a welder and single father struggling to rebuild his life.

“As Dillon hides the fact that she’s living out of her car, Freddy’s wary in-laws (Shannon and Greer) step in to protect their grandson.

“The return of Ryder (Dano), Dillon’s charming but self-destructive ex, threatens to unravel everything.”

Touted as Bahrani’s most mainstream project yet, the film could prove to be a box office sensation when it reaches cinemas in late 2026. The director revealed in a statement: “I’ve spent over a year in Las Vegas to write and prepare this film, a story about people living close to the edge, who don’t believe they deserve love, and find it anyway.

“My leads; Maika Monroe and Brandon Sklenar supported by Paul Dano, Michael Shannon, and Judy Greer. When you have an ensemble this extraordinary then the film can grow from the inside out, revealing itself through the process.

“And, a bittersweet thanks to my friend and former producer, the late Kevin Turen for connecting me with producer Jason Michael Berman, who has believed in my vision from the very start, and to Andrea Bucko and all my incredible producers and executive producers for supporting me.”
