After displaying some teenage craziness in Spring Breakers this March, upstart distributor A24 will continue straight into the summer with Sofia Coppola‘s next drama, The Bling Ring. After being rumored for a June release, the drama starring Emma Watson as the leader of a pack of Los Angeles-set teenage criminals, has been officially set for a limited release on June 14th, where it will face off again Sundance favorite The Kings of Summer.
Another Sundance hit also got its release date confirmed; after star Miles Teller revealed last week that his reportedly stellar drama The Spectacular Now was opening on August 2nd, A24 also went ahead and backed him up on that fact. Directed by Smashed‘s James Ponsoldt, the coming-of-age drama also stars Shailene Woodley, Brie Larson, Kyle Chandler, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Elizabeth Winstead.
Lastly, in extremely minor release date news, the Michael Bay-produced, Jonathan Liebesman-directed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot will not open on May 16th, 2014. Instead, Paramount have pushed the Megan Fox-led project back a few weeks to June 6th, 2014. As I hinted, this one shouldn’t effect you in the slightest, but if it does, we would love to know precisely why in the comments.
Which of the above films are you most looking forward to?
