Angel Studios On ‘The King Of Kings’ Appeal As Jesus Story With Charles Dickens & Starry Cast Eyes Top Animated Faith-Based Debut – Specialty Preview


'The King Of Kings' from Angel Studios, eyeing the highest opening for an animated faith-based film, and 'Sacramento' lead top new indie film openings.

Angarano stars as Rickey, an energetic and free-spirited young man with a Peter Pan complex, convinces his long-time friend Glenn to hit pause on his blissful domestic life and embark on an impromptu road trip across California. Angarano, whose credits range from Will & Grace and The Knick to This Is Us, Oppenheimer, Apple’s Margo’s Got Money Troubles and Peacock limited series Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy, said he and Chris Smith started writing the script 10 years ago after finding themselves with free time when a pilot they acted in didn’t get picked up. Nadia Conners’ SXSW 2023 comedy-drama The Uninvited starring Elizabeth Reaser, Walton Goggins, Lois Smith, Eva De Dominici, Rufus Sewell and Pedro Pascal opens at the IFC Center this week.
