LD Entertainment and Roadside Attractions have re-teamed up to acquire North American distribution rights to Julie Taymor’s “The Glorias,” LD Entertainment’s Mickey Liddell and Roadside co-presidents Howard Cohen and Eric d’Arbeloff announced on Thursday.
“The Glorias” had its world premiere at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival where it received three standing ovations and featured a rousing Q & A with Taymor and Gloria Steinem. A Fall release date is planned in advance of the 2020 election, along with a national promotional tour with significant support from Steinem.
“With ‘The Glorias,’ Julie Taymor and her extraordinary cast paint a commanding portrait of an American leader, the remarkable Gloria Steinem, and also salute the millions of amazing women who have fought alongside Gloria for social change during the last half-century,” said Roadside’s Cohen and d’Arbeloff in a statement to TheWrap.
