katikatYou remember James McAvoy's Welcome to the Punch?
According to IndieWire - link - IFC Films acquired the US rights for it, calling it "an ingenious action thriller featuring some of the best actors working today including James MacAvoy, Mark Strong and Andrea Riseborough." According to TheFilmStage - link - it might be released this fall.
I wonder if it'll be a state wide release or just Sundance etc., no idea how these things work. I wanted to put it out there because I can't wait to see the film! Though I worry that our cinemas won't show it :( I mean, they didn't even pick up Cabin in the Woods or J. Edgar, 2 movies I wanted to see in the theater... :( Well, at least give it to me on DVD! I'll gladly pay for it!!!
ETA: Latest news from the director Eran Creevy: "Welcome to the Punch now sold in every territory in the world." Found in WTTP's IMDB forum.
