Daisy Ridley-Starring ‘Magpie’ Acquired by Shout! Studios for North American Distribution (EXCLUSIVE)


Shout! has secured North American distribution rights for 'Magpie' with Daisy Ridley and has plans for a theatrical release later this year.

“‘Magpie’ is a stylish neo-noir thriller centered on married couple Anette (Ridley) and Ben (Shazad Latif), whose lives begin to fracture when their daughter is cast alongside a glamorous movie star, Alicia (Matilda Lutz). As Anette’s suspicions of Ben’s infatuation with Alicia intensify, their secrets and lies threaten to burst to the surface and destroy them all,” reads its logline. “‘Magpie’ is a movie you enjoy at least twice — first, when you experience the pleasure of a stylish, expertly acted and twisty psychological thriller, and then when you dissect and discuss it with someone else,” Jordan Fields, Shout’s senior vice president of acquisitions and originals, said in a statement.
