The Orchard has acquired worldwide rights to writer-director-star Louis C.K’s secret film project, “I Love You, Daddy,” which premiered over the weekend at the Toronto Film Festival. The pricetag was estimated to be around $5 million.
The dark comedy, which C.K shot earlier this year in black and white and on 35mm, is a brazen and funny look at beloved artists who are trailed by scandal.
The film stars Louis C.K., John Malkovich, Chloë Grace Moretz, Rose Byrne, Edie Falco, Charlie Day, Pamela Adlon, Helen Hunt and Ebonee Noel.
“I Love You, Daddy” was written by Louis C.K. from a story by C.K.
