Mubi has snatched up Nicolas Winding Refns upcoming feature Her Private Hell, taking all rights for the film in the U.K., Ireland, Italy, Spain and Latin America. Mubi said it will announce its release plans for the film in the near future.
The hotly-anticipated film is Refns first feature since The Neon Demon in 2016.
The Tokyo-set thriller, stars Sophie Thatcher (Yellowjackets), Charles Melton (May December), Havana Rose Liu (Hal Harper), Kristine Froseth (The First Lady), Diego Calva (Babylon), Shioli Kutsuna (Deadpool and Wolverine), Aoi Yamada (Perfect Days) and Hidetoshi Nishijima (Drive My Car). Plot details are being kept under wraps. Neon has pre-bought North American rights ahead of the films premiere, widely rumored to be in Cannes this year. Refn has had several features premiere on the Croisette, including The Neon Demon, Only God Forgives (2013), and Drive (2011), which won best director for the Danish auteur. Refn has spent the past decade working in television, making the trippy crime drama Too Old to Die Young (2019), starring Miles Teller, for Amazon, dark Danish fable Copenhagen Cowboy for Netflix, and, in a surprising move for the radical avant garde director, producing the children series The Famous Five (2023) for the BBC and German broadcaster ZDF.
Mubis recent and upcoming slate includes several of last years Cannes favorites, including Joachim Triers Oscar-winning Sentimental Value, Kleber de Mendona Filhos The Secret Agent, afar
Panahis It Was Just an Accident, and Akinola Davies My Fathers Shadow. The global streamer recently picked up multiple territories on Markus Schleinzers black-and-whiteperiod drama Rose, which premiered in Berlin and won best actress for star Sandra Hller (Project Hail Mary).
