IFC Midnight has continued its buying streak by taking on US rights to Wrecked from eOne.
IFC Midnight will release in spring 2011.
Michael Greenspan makes his directorial debut on the psychological thriller starring Adrien Brody. The cast also features Caroline Dhavernas and Ryan Robbins.
Kyle Mann (Capote) developed, produced and financed the film (with Telefilm Canada) through his new production company Independent Edge. Brody also served as an executive producer.
Christopher Dodd wrote the script, about a man who awakes from a car wreck with amnesia. The film shot in remote British Columbia.
“Wrecked is the perfect film for IFC Midnight and its audience. Adrien Brody gives an incredibly intense performance here and Michael Greenspan is a remarkable new talent,” said IFC Films President of Entertainment Jonathan Sehring.
The deal for Wrecked was negotiated by Arianna Bocco on behalf of IFC Films, and by Ben Weiss of Paradigm and Charlotte Mickie from eOne Films International.
Wrecked has been sold already to an extensive list of worldwide territories including Canada (Alliance), the former Yugoslavia (Karantanija), France (Bac), Greece (Hollywood), India (Picture Works), Indonesia, Vietnam, Singapore & Pakistan (Pt Parkit), Israel (United King), Korea (Korea Issue), Poland (Hagi), Portugal (VC Multimedia) and Taiwan (Catchplay).
