Sony Pictures Classics Nabs Molly Gordon's Sundance Hit ‘Oh, Hi!'

'Oh, Hi!' has finally found a home. Worldwide rights to the charming romantic comedy starring Molly Gordon and Logan Lerman, which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival, have been acquired by Sony Pictures Classics. The film was written and directed by Sophie Brooks from a story that Brooks and Gordon conceived together, with a supporting cast that includes Geraldine Viswanathan, John Reynolds and a very funny David Cross. The official synopsis describes the film as, 'Iris (Gordon) and Isaac's (Lerman) first romantic weekend getaway as a couple goes awry. Convinced that he's just confused, Iris goes to extreme lengths to prove to him that they are meant to be together.' 'I could not be more thrilled that we have found our home with Sony Pictures Classics. For as long as I can remember, I have loved their films; always marked by distinct voices and elegance,' Brooks said in a statement. 'I can't wait for audiences to see our kooky film in theaters.' 'That unpredictable, dark romantic comedy – youthful and hilarious yet with just the right about of danger. The performances are fantastic and beautifully directed by Sophie Brooks. 'Oh, Hi!' is a definite audience winner,' Sony Pictures Classics added. 'Oh, Hi!' is produced by David Brooks, Dan Clifton, Julie Waters, Sophie Brooks and Molly Gordon. Evan Dyal, Justin Brown and Evan Moore are executive producers alongside Sabina Friedman-Seitz, Molly Quinn, Matthew M. Welty and Elan Gale. The deal was negotiated between Sony Pictures Classics, WME Independent and UTA Independent Film Group on behalf of the filmmakers. Watermark Media financed the feature, in association with QWGmire, AmorFortuna and Bespoke Production Capital. Sony Pictures Classics also recently picked up the Sundance audience-winning 'East of Wall.' The post Sony Pictures Classics Nabs Molly Gordon's Sundance Hit 'Oh, Hi!' appeared first on TheWrap.
