Netflix Closes $50M+ Global Deal For Aaron Sorkin’s ‘The Trial Of Chicago 7’
The filmmakers wanted the timely film to be seen by as wide an audience as possible, especially before the election, and Covid made theatrical releases more problematic. Paramount came off the film in recent weeks and the last of the international buyers has been unwound and compensated.
We hear that the new pact with Cross Creek covers the previous financial commitments on the film so it isn’t a case of extra riches all round. CAA Media Finance brokered the deal. The film had been due for domestic release at the end of September. It now lines up as another potential awards contender for Netflix. Release date has not been set but it’s likely to be on the platform before the November election.
Marc Platt, Stuart Besser, Matt Jackson and Tyler Thompson are producers. Executive producers are Laurie MacDonald, Walter Parkes, Marc Butan, Anthony Katagas, James Rodenhouse, Shivani Rawat and Nia Vazirani.
