EXCLUSIVE: Francis Ford Coppola‘s Megalopolis has sold to key indie buyers in Europe’s top five territories, we can reveal.
Ahead of its anticipated world premiere at this week’s Cannes Film Festival the movie has closed with Constantin Film for Germany and all German-speaking territories, including Switzerland and Austria; Eagle Pictures for Italy; Tripictures for Spain; and Entertainment Film Distributors Limited for the U.K. A deal with Le Pacte for France was announced last week.
The movie debuts on Thursday 16th in Cannes with cast Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito, Nathalie Emmanuel, Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Jon Voight, Laurence Fishburne, Talia Shire, Kathryn Hunter, Grace VanderWaal, Chloe Fineman, D.B. Sweeney, and Dustin Hoffman set to tread the red carpet.
Wikipedia describe them as a “mini-major” and “large independent”. So,I suppose they get the advantages of size with the flexibility of being independent.
Right, I guess that makes sense. They usually have quite good movies in their portfolio, whoever is making the decisions, has a good grasp on quality.
