Searchlight Dates Jesse Eisenberg’s ‘A Real Pain’ For Fall
'A Real Pain' has set its release date with Searchlight Pictures following the studio's acquisition of the pic in a Sundance bidding war.
Eisenberg stars opposite Succession Emmy winner Kieran Culkin in the buzz title, which Searchlight snapped up for $10 million in the first major deal out of this year’s Sundance Film Festival, as we were first to report. In the film, also scripted by Eisenberg, the pair play David and Benji, cousins who reunite for a tour of Poland to honor their grandmother, but see older tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family’s history. Hailing from Topic and Fruit Tree, the film also stars Jennifer Grey ( Dirty Dancing), Will Sharpe ( The White Lotus), Kurt Egyiawan ( Beasts of No Nation), Liza Sadovy ( A Small Light) and Daniel Oreskes ( Only Murders in the Building).
