A youth-skewing horror film starring Asa Butterfield and the political drama 'Rabiye Kurnaz vs. George W. Bush' also are among the titles generating pre-market heat.
. Roland Emmerich’s $150 million sci-fi epic was the last major pre-pandemic presale for the international market. At Cannes 2019, Stuart Ford’s AGC Studios closed seven- and eight-figure deals with buyers in territories that are now struggling with the omicron surge. The performance of the film will be taken as a barometer of the future potential of the market.
“At the moment, we’re waiting to see how things develop, what happens with omicron, to decide what projects we bring to Berlin, what we hold for Cannes, and what maybe we sell straight to the streamers,” noted one veteran financier two weeks ahead of Berlin. Such hesitation means the biggest market titles will likely be confirmed only shortly before EFM. But for speciality distributors worldwide, the art house and genre titles on offer could be just the ticket. Here are five titles with strong pre-market buzz.
