Josh O’Connor’s ‘Bonus Track’ Sets U.S. Release Date, Unveils Trailer
Sunrise Films has set a U.S. release date for “Bonus Track,” the feature directorial debut from director Julia Jackman, written by Mike Gilbert, with a story by Josh O’Connor.
The coming-of-age queer rom-com stars Joe Anders (“1917”) and Samuel Small (“So Awkward”), supported by an ensemble cast including Ray Panthaki (“Boiling Point”), Susan Wokoma (“Enola Holmes”), Jack Davenport (“Ten Percent”), Alison Sudol (the “Fantastic Beasts” franchise) and O’Connor (“Challengers”) in a cameo role.
Set in 2006 England, the story follows 16-year-old aspiring musician George (Anders), who befriends Max (Small), the son of a famous musical duo, as they prepare for a year-end talent show. Their friendship evolves in unexpected ways.
“Bonus Track” made its debut at the BFI London Film Festival and was released in the U.K. as a Sky Original film. The film is an Erebus Pictures and Sky production, in association with Lunapark Pictures and Fortune Films. Bankside Films, from whom Sunrise acquired the U.S. rights for the film, handles international sales.
The film will release theatrically in the U.S. on Oct. 11, which is also National Coming Out Day.
Sunrise Films is a production and internationally focused distribution company launched by Vertigo Releasing CEO Rupert Preston and chair Nigel Williams.
The company’s production credits include “The Accused” and “Gassed Up.” On the distribution front, Sunrise has released films such as “Beneath the Surface,” “The Girl in the Trunk,” “After Love,” and “Law of Tehran” in the U.S. They recently acquired Luna Carmoon’s Venice winner “Hoard” and the action thriller “Sunray” for U.S. distribution.
