Samuel Goldwyn Films has acquired North American rights to Sasha Gordon’s subversive rom-com starring Cristin Milioti and Dan Soder.
It Had To Be You premiered at the Austin Film Festival and centres on a neurotic jingle writer who is given three days in which to decide whether to marry her fiancé or take a leap and pursue her fantasies.
“We were drawn to Sasha’s fresh take on the romantic comedy,” said Melanie Miller, executive vice-president at Samuel Goldwyn Films. “Festival-goers have embraced the film and we can’t wait to bring it to a wider audience.”
The film is scheduled to open on October 21.
“Samuel Goldwyn has released some of my favourite indies so working with them on my debut feature is truly a dream come true,” said Gordon.
Rachel Brenna, Richard Arlook, Benjamin Kruger and Levi Abrino produced the film and Chris Columbus served as executive producer.
