Netflix has acquired the worldwide rights to Sam Levinson’s witty, lush, romantic drama MALCOM & MARIE starring Zendaya and John David Washington.
Sam Levinson teams up with Zendaya and John David Washington for an achingly romantic drama in which a filmmaker (Washington) and his girlfriend (Zendaya) return home following a celebratory movie premiere as he awaits what’s sure to be an imminent critical and financial success. The evening suddenly takes a turn as revelations about their relationships begin to surface, testing the strength of their love. Working with cinematographer Marcell Rev, Levinson creates a film of rare originality; an ode to the great Hollywood romances as well as a heartfelt expression of faith in the medium’s future.
The cast and crew of MALCOLM & Marie will share a portion of the proceeds of this sale with FEEDING AMERICA.
A premiere date is still not set.
