Sony Pictures Classics has acquired worldwide rights to Graham Parkes’s SXSW narrative feature prize-winner Wishful Thinking starring Lewis Pullman and Maya Hawke.
The story centres on an ambitious game designer and a struggling musician who attend a couples-therapy seminar run by mysterious twin healers and discover that the ups-and-downs of their relationship have supernatural effects on the world around them.
The cast also includes Amita Rao, Randall Park, Eric Rahill, Jake Shane, Kate Berlant, and Kerri Kenney-Silver. Pullman produced for Buckwild Pictures, Dan Gedman and Matt Smith for Highway 10, and Kara Durrett for Pinky Promise. Alyssa Roehrenbeck, Sarah Mather, Jessamine Burgum, Cameron Fuller, and Graham Patrick Martin served as executive producers and Highway 10 fully-financed.
Sony Pictures Classics negotiated the acquisition with UTA Independent Film Group on behalf of the filmmakers.
