Deadline New York – (March 12, 2012) – The
Wagner/Cuban Company’s Magnolia Pictures announced today the June 8th
U.S. theatrical release of BEL AMI, starring Robert Pattinson, Uma
Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Christina Ricci, and Colm Meaney. BEL AMI
had its World Premiere as an Official Selection of last month’s 62nd
Berlin International Film Festival.
In this sexy retelling of Guy de
Maupassant’s classic tale of blackmail, manipulation, and
social-climbing, set against 19th century Paris, Pattinson stars as the
young and very ambitious George Duroy, who discovers that his
unadulterated passion and seduction skills with influential Parisian
ladies (Ricci, Thurman, and Thomas), above-all, is the fastest and most
effective way to the upper echelons of the society he so desperately
wants to control.
Directed by Declan Donnellan and
Nick Ormerod, the film was written by Rachel Bennette, produced by
Uberto Pasolini (The Full Monty), and Simon Fuller of XIX Entertainment
(“American Idol,” “So You Think You Can Dance”) executive produced.
Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions (SPWA) will handle all other U.S. media.
“BEL AMI is a well-crafted,
appealing film with a terrific ensemble cast,” said Magnolia President
Eamonn Bowles. “We think it’s a great fit for our Ultra VOD program.” The
deal was negotiated for Magnolia by SVP of Acquisitions Dori Begley and
Head of Business Affairs Chris Matson with SPWA’s EVP of Business
Affairs Michael Helfand and VP Acquisitions and Distribution Tana Evans.
