James Franco, Rachel McAdams 3D Drama ‘Every Thing Will Be Fine’ Sells to IFC Films

Wim Wenders directed the movie, which co-stars Charlotte Gainsbourg and Marie-Josée Croze

IFC Films has acquired U.S. rights to Wim Wenders‘ 3D drama “Every Thing Will Be Fine,” which stars James Franco, Rachel McAdams, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Marie-Josée Croze.

The film will make its North American premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival in the Masters section. IFC Films will release “Every Thing Will Be Fine” on Dec. 4.

The story follows a tragic car accident that links the lives of a struggling writer (Franco), his long-suffering girlfriend (McAdams), a grieving mother (Gainsbourg) and a publisher (Croze).

Peter Stormare co-stars alongside Robert Naylor and Patrick Bauchau.

The film was written by Bjørn Olaf Johannessen, produced by Gian-Piero Ringel and executive produced by Jeremy Thomas, Hussain Amarshi, Erwin M. Schmidt and Vince Jolivette.

“We are thrilled to once more be working with Wim Wenders — a legendary filmmaker who brings great sensitivity to all his work. In ‘Every Thing Will Be Fine,’ he delivers a compelling and beautifully shot examination of grief,” said Jonathan Sehring, president of Sundance Selects/IFC Films, which previously released two of Wenders’ past films — “Pina” (2011) and “Land of Plenty” (2004).

The deal for the film was negotiated by Arianna Bocco, SVP of acquisitions and productions for Sundance Selects/IFC Films, with HanWay Films on behalf of the filmmakers.
