Shudder, the AMC Networks genre streaming service, has acquired North American rights to Jessica Forever, the dystopian thriller that will have its world premiere as the closing-night film of the Platform section at next month’s Toronto Film Festival, says Deadline.
The pic, in English and French, centers on a woman and her makeshift family of rehabilitated marauders fighting for peace in a dystopian world where violent misfits reign supreme.
Aomi Muyock, Sebastian Urzendowsky, Lucas Ionesco and Paul Hamy star.
The film from first-time directors Caroline Poggi and Jonathan Vinel will bow exclusively on Shudder in 2019.
