Focus Acquires Jason Reitman's Tully
Written by Diablo Cody, the film stars Charlize Theron, Mackenzie Davis and Mark Duplass
Focus Features has acquired North American rights to Tully, directed by Academy Award-nominee Jason Reitman, and has slated a U.S. release date of April 20th, 2018.
Story
Tully tells the story of Marlo [Theron], a mother of three including a newborn, who is gifted a night nanny by her brother [Duplass]. Hesitant to the extravagance at first, Marlo comes to form a unique bond with the thoughtful, surprising, and sometimes challenging young nanny named Tully [Davis].
We're thrilled to be teaming up with Jason for the first time after being long admirers of his witty, inspired filmmaking
