RLJE Films has acquired the rights to "Dual", a film that premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.
"Dual" stars Karen Gillan, Aaron Paul, and Beulah Koale, and follows the story of a dying woman who decides to create a clone of herself to live on. However, trouble arises when she makes an unexpected full recovery and now there are two of her in this world, and one has to go.
RLJE Films' Chief Acquisition Officer, Mark Ward said, "DUAL was a film we were targeting from the beginning of the Sundance Film Festival and it exceeded our expectations. We are happy to be working with our partners at XYZ Films yet again and can't wait to release the film later this year."
"Shooting DUAL with XYZ during a global pandemic will forever be an experience I look back on with a tremendous amount of pride. I'm beyond thrilled to enter the next stage of this journey with the team at RLJE Films and I can't wait for audiences to see a film which we all deeply care for," added Riley Stearns, director, writer, and producer of the film.
The film will hit theaters this year.
