Sony Pictures Classics will turn its original November 25 release date for awards hopeful The Son starring Hugh Jackman into a one-week awards qualifying run in New York and Los Angeles and will release the film theatrically nationwide on January 20, 2023.
“In a marketplace that appears to be getting more overcrowded daily, it only makes sense to pivot and change our openings for The Son in New York and Los Angeles on November 25th to a one-week only qualifying run,” said Tom Prassis, EVP of distribution and sales.
“Officially we will open The Son on January 20th nationwide, only in theaters, when there is more room for the film to breathe.”
Florian Zeller directed the drama from a screenplay he co-wrote with Christopher Hampton about a family struggling to reunite after it falls apart.
The cast includes Laura Dern, Vanessa Kirby, Zen McGrath, and Anthony Hopkins. The film premiered in Venice.
