STXfilms has acquired the North American and UK distribution rights to “Songbird,” the film that was shot in Los Angeles during lockdown and was produced by Michael Bay, Adam Goodman and Andrew Sugerman’s Invisible Narratives and Catchlight Films, STX and Invisible Narratives announced jointly Thursday.
“Songbird” was one of the first features to film in Los Angeles since productions shut down in mid-March, and recently wrapped production. It’s a pandemic thriller that stars KJ Apa and Sofia Carson alongside Craig Robinson, Bradley Whitford, Peter Stormare, Jenna Ortega, Alexandra Daddario, Paul Water Hauser and Demi Moore.
“Into the Dark” filmmaker Adam Mason directed “Songbird” utilizing creative camera techniques made to prevent actors from having face-to-face interaction with one another while on camera, all while actors were separated from crew as filming took place.
