"Well, that film had its premiere at Sundance this past Saturday, and audiences reportedly went nuts for it. The New York Post reports the film screening got a standing ovation, and calls the funniest movie of the year. The Hollywood Reporter calls it a smart, sophisticated and incisively acted adult entertainment that savages the crumbling institution of marriage. SFGate has a review too, saying the film is Sundance's biggest hit."
"So will one of the top movies of 2026 be a San Francisco movie? The Hollywood studios think so, as Variety reports that five studios are in a bidding war for the film, including Netflix and Apple. The Hollywood Reporter says that A24, Neon and Universal division Focus Features are said to be the frontrunners for the feature, although Netflix is making a hard move with beaucoup bucks. Deadline reported late Tuesday afternoon that Warner Bros is now in the mix too."
Seth Rogen filmed a new comedy in San Francisco with Olivia Wilde (director and co-star), Ed Norton, and Penélope Cruz, shooting at locations such as the Make-Out Room, Glen Park BART Station, and AP Giannini Middle School. The film premiered at Sundance and received a standing ovation. Reviews have been strong, with The New York Post calling it the funniest movie of the year, The Hollywood Reporter praising its intelligence and performances, and SFGate labeling it Sundance's biggest hit. Multiple studios, including Netflix, Apple, A24, Neon, Focus Features, and Warner Bros, are reportedly competing for distribution. The film is described as a screwball comedy about a troubled marriage disrupted by a polyamorous dinner party. No release date is currently announced.
