IFC Films and Sundance Selects to Distribute On the Road

AMC Networks has just announced the acquisition of all US rights to acclaimed filmmaker Walter Salles’ On the Road, to be released jointly by the company’s film distribution labels IFC Films and Sundance Selects.

Based on the iconic novel by Jack Kerouac, the film stars Garrett Hedlund, Sam Riley, Kristen Stewart and Kirsten Dunst and features performances by Amy Adams, Tom Sturridge, Danny Morgan, Alice Braga, Elisabeth Moss and Viggo Mortensen. The screenplay is by Jose Rivera (Academy Award nominee for The Motorcycle Diaries).

The World Premiere for On the Road is set for the upcoming Cannes Film Festival in the Competition Section. A major theatrical release is planned for late fall.

On the Road tells the provocative story of Sal Paradise (Sam Riley), a young writer whose life is shaken and ultimately redefined by the arrival of Dean Moriarty (Garrett Hedlund), a free-spirited, fearless, fast talking Westerner, and his girl, Marylou (Kristen Stewart). Together, Sal and Dean travel cross-country in a quest for freedom from the conformity and conservatism engulfing them, in search of the unknown, themselves, and the pursuit of “it” — the pure essence of experience.
