eOne Films has acquired North American rights to the SXSW rom-com and plans a late 2014 theatrical release.

Liz Tuccillo directed and wrote Take Care and produced with Leslie Bibb and Grace Naughton. John Melfi served as executive producer with Sixteen19’s Jonathan Hoffman and Pete Conlin.

The rom-com stars Bibb and Thomas Sadoski as well as Marin Ireland, Betty Gilpin, Nadia Dajani, Michael Stahl-David and Tracee Chimo.

The story centres on a woman who persuades her ex-boyfriend to look after her while she convalesces from a car crash.

eOne Films brokered the deal with UTA Independent Film Group negotiated on behalf of the filmmakers.
