Regina Hall Will Topline and Exec Produce Mariama Diallo Occult Drama “Master”

Hall in "Black Monday"

Regina Hall’s next project sees her taking on supernatural forces and racism on a college campus. The “Black Monday” actress is set to star and exec produce “Master,” an Amazon Studios occult drama that marks Mariama Diallo’s feature directorial debut. Deadline broke the news.

Penned by Diallo, the pic “follows two African American women at a predominantly white college in Massachusetts – one head of students (aka Master) and one a freshman – who start to experience haunting activities ingrained in the history of the school,” the source summarizes.

Hall is playing Gail Bishop, “the queer, black master of the Belleville house at Ancaster, a liberal arts college outside Boston. She must manage her campus as instances of racism cause tensions while students and faculty are haunted by sinister supernatural forces.”

Besides directing several eps of HBO’s “Random Acts of Flyness,” Diallo’s other credits include the Sundance-winning short film “Hair Wolf,” a horror comedy that takes place in a black hair salon. The salon’s staff are threatened by white women determined to suck “the lifeblood from black culture.”

“Little,” “The Hate U Give,” and “Support the Girls” are among Hall’s recent credits.
