Manifest Pictures will launch sales in Cannes later this month on the erotic thriller Bulls starring Dylan O’Brien, Lewis Pullman, and Kaia Gerber.
QC Entertainment is financing and producing the story about Danny (O’Brien), who has spent 30 years apologising for existing. As his relationship cracks, he books a last-ditch trip to a hedonistic island resort hoping to return as someone his girlfriend can finally believe in.
