Megalopolis opened in theaters in the U.S. and globally in the past few weeks via distribution deals with Lionsgate and others. It has garnered mixed reviews and attracted plenty controversy. The $120M passion project has sold to the likes of Australia (Madman Entertainment), Benelux (September Films), Bulgaria (Profilm), Czech Republic and Slovakia (Film Europe), Ex- Yugoslavia (MCF Megacom Film), Greece (Feelgood Entertainment), Hungary (Mozinet), Israel (Lev Cinemas), Morocco (Facility Event), Portugal (Midas Filmes) Romania (Independenta Film), Scandinavia (Njutafilms) and Turkey (Bir Film).

Starring Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito, Aubrey Plaza and Shia LaBeouf, the movie charts a conflict between Cesar (Driver), a genius artist who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero (Esposito), who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare.
