EXCLUSIVE: In competitive bidding, A24 has acquired U.S. theatrical rights to Sing Sing, the Greg Kwedar-directed drama that stars Colman Domingo.
The film premiered at Toronto to rapturous reviews and A24 is plotting a 2024 theatrical release. Deal is 7-figures. Financed and produced by Black Bear, the Marfa Peach Company and Edith Productions, Sing Sing revolves around a theater group that escapes the reality of incarceration through the creativity of staging a play, with a cast that includes actors who have been incarcerated.
Clint Bentley, Brent Buell and Kwedar adapted the script from Buell’s play, Breakin’ The Mummy’s Code. Bentley and Kwedar produced with Monique Walton.
CAA Media Finance brokered the domestic deal, and Black Bear is selling international territories. Domingo turned in two strong performances in festival films, with the other being his turn as Bayard Rustin in Netflix’s Rustin.
