Toronto Film Festival Opener ‘Nutcrackers’ Selling To Hulu In 8-Figure Deal


Hulu has paid 8-figures for Nutcrackers, directed by David Gordon Green and starring Ben Stiller, after it opened the Toronto Film Festival.

Hulu is in final talks to pay 8-figures for the family comedy directed by David Gordon Green and starring Ben Stiller, Linda Cardellini, Edi Patterson, Tim Heidecker and Toby Hussles. The Leland Douglas-scripted comedy stars Stiller as a work-obsessed city slicker who is forced to move to rural Ohio to take care of his sister’s children after her sudden passing. Deal making at TIFF has been slow going, but many titles are in play, and I believe most of the films will find homes, but maybe not until after the festival concludes this weekend.
