Olivia Holt, Mason Gooding Horror Rom-Com ‘Heart Eyes’ Lands February Release
Sony is hoping to scare up some pre-Valentine’s Day moviegoing with Heart Eyes, which the studio has picked up for a Feb. 7, 2025 release date.
Olivia Holt and Mason Gooding star in the Spyglass feature, in which the couple-killing Heart Eyes Killer stalks Seattle. When the killer mistakes a pair of co-workers working overtime on Valentine’s Day for a couple, they must flee and spend the most romantic night of the year on the run.

Gigi Zumbado, Devon Sawa and Jordana Brewster also star in Heart Eyes. Josh Ruben directs from a script by Phillip Murphy, Christopher Landon & Michael Kennedy.
“My love of horror is rivaled only by my love of romantic comedies. I’m excited as hell to mount my most challenging genre bender to date: a brutal slasher in a nostalgic rom-com universe,” Ruben said in June when announcing the project.
The feature blends horror and comedy, and follows Spyglass horror hits such as Scream VI and Thanksgiving. Landon and Divide/Conquer’s Greg Gilreath and Adam Hendricks will produce. Spyglass boss Gary Barber and Chris Stone executive produce with Mel Turner, Phillip Murphy and Michael Kennedy.
The feature opens opposite Universal’s With Love, an action feature starring Ke Huy Quan and Ariana DeBose.
