A24 Buys ‘Friendship,’ Starring Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd, Following TIFF Premiere (EXCLUSIVE)
A24 has landed rights to "Friendship," a comedy starring Tim Robinson of "I Think You Should Leave" fame, Paul Rudd and Kate Mara.
Channeling the cringe comedy of “I Think You Should Leave,” Robinson plays a suburban dad who obsessively pursues a bond with his charming neighbor (Rudd). Daily Beast critic Nick Schager called “Friendship” the “funniest film of the year,” adding that “what truly elevates Robinson’s maiden cinematic outing […] is its recognition that, at heart, his oddballs aren’t just harmless goofs—they’re unhinged psychopaths.” Elsewhere on the festival circuit, A24 has acquired “The Brutalist,” a historical epic directed by Brady Corbet and starring Adrien Brody and Felicity Jones, for U.S. distribution, as well as Luca Guadagnino’s “Queer,” a romantic drama with Daniel Craig and Drew Starkey.
