Hailee Steinfeld is set to star alongside Miles Teller in "Winter Games," a spirited romantic comedy from Paramount Pictures that promises to heat up the silver screen. At the helm is Paul Downs Colaizzo, the talented writer-director behind the sports-themed gem "Brittany Runs a Marathon," who has co-penned the script with Patrick Cunnane.
This captivating tale unfolds against the high-stakes backdrop of the Winter Olympic Games. It revolves around a skier who has always been in the shadows and a hockey legend prone to self-sabotage, whose paths collide at their respective breaking points. As their unexpected bond blossoms, it jeopardizes her chances of securing a medal and his bid for a comeback amidst the romantic entanglements and personal redemption sought within the Olympic Village.
Tim and Trevor White are producing the film on behalf of Star Thrower, alongside Miles Teller.
Hailee Steinfeld has had quite the eventful spring. In May, she tied the knot with Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen. Additionally, she co-starred with Michael B. Jordan in Ryan Coogler's original supernatural horror film "Sinners," which released in April and exceeded all expectations, grossing over $278 million domestically and generating awards buzz.
Steinfeld also made a triumphant return to music by contributing the track "Dangerous" to the "Sinners" soundtrack. In its first month, "Dangerous" amassed over 4.7 million streams on Spotify.
Her impressive screen credits include voicing the fan-favorite Marvel character Gwen Stacy in the acclaimed "Spider-Verse" movies, appearing in Marvel's "Hawkeye" TV series, and starring in Paramount's "Transformers" prequel "Bumblebee."
She is represented by CAA and Howard Fishman.
