2021 Sundance Film Festival Predictions: Owen Kline’s Two Against Nature

Published on November 25, 2020

We’ll call Two Against Nature the Bermuda Triangle of all our Sundance guesses. An indie comedy that was backed by a talented bunch and one that employed the celluloid extraordinaire services in Sean Price Williams has dropped out of sight since it went into production back in November 2017. What we do know is that Maria Dizzia (she closes out the excellent Christine) toplines and, Josh Pais, Daniel Zolghadri and Matthew Maher are also set. Owen Kline who was a child actor in The Squid and the Whale both wrote and directed the project.

Gist: TBD.

Production Co./Producers: Elara Pictures’ Sebastian Bear-McClard, Oscar Boyson, Benny Safdie, Josh Safdie, Scott Rudin Productions’ Scott Rudin and Eli Bush.

Prediction: NEXT

U.S. Distributor: Rights Available.
