One of the brightest young actors on the planet right now is Stranger Things breakout Sadie Sink. As first reported by Deadline, the multitalented performer continues to add to her ever-growing list of roles in film and on TV with a starring role in a new film in the works titled O’Dessa.

Hailing from Searchlight Pictures, O’Dessa is reportedly an original rock opera that tells the story of a young farm girl.
