Mubi Unveils North American Release Date For Sundance Thriller ‘Lurker’


'Lurker's North American release date was unveiled by Mubi on Wednesday morning.

The film is set to hit theaters on August 22, opening against Lionsgate’s indie Sydney Sweeney vehicle Americana and Vertical’s thriller Eden from Ron Howard. World premiering to critical acclaim at the Sundance Film Festival, where it notched one of this year’s few deals, Lurker watches as a 20-something retail clerk encounters a rising pop star, taking the opportunity to edge his way into the in-crowd. Set to close out New Directors/New Films in New York City after making its international premiere at the Berlinale, the project marks the feature debut of Alex Russell, a rising writer-producer whose credits include buzzy series Beef and The Bear.
