By Dave McNary Film Reporter HBO Max has acquired worldwide rights to the Seth Rogen comedy “An American Pickle,” which will be released under the platform’s Warner Max label this year.

HBO Max bought the film from Sony Pictures so it wouldn’t be delayed in light of theater closures. It will now reach audiences via the new streaming platform.

Most North American cinemas are not expected to open until late summer, due to the coronavirus pandemic. Rogen plays dual leading roles in an adaptation of the 2013 New Yorker series “Sell Out” by Simon Rich, who also wrote the script. “An American Pickle” is directed by Brandon Trost, the cinematographer from Rogen’s previous films (“This Is the End,” “Neighbors,” “The Interview”).
