2022 Sundance Film Festival Predictions: Dan Kwan & Daniel Scheinert’s Everything Everywhere All at Once

Date:

We were in the mindset that thought that a 2021 playdate was in the cards for Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert‘s Everything Everywhere All at Once, but the project probably needed a bit more time in post before the A24 folks brought the ambitious project into the world. Buyers at the recent virtual AFM got a first glance at the project and the distrib are looking to drop the film sometime in the Spring so this would definitely benefit from a Sundance or SXSW premiere showing. The Daniels have been to Park City with 2016’s Swiss Army Man, 2019’s The Death of Dick Long (solo directing gig for Scheinert) and were part of the Omniboat: A Fast Boat Fantasia experiment. Filming on this film started way back in January 2020 in Los Angeles and the film is a full on Michelle Yeoh show. Let the inter-dimensional action festivities begin!

Gist: A Chinese immigrant (Michelle Yeoh) is swept up in a wild adventure where she alone can save the world by exploring other universes connecting with the lives she could have led. Unfortunately, this sweeps her up into an even bigger adventure when she finds herself lost in the infinite worlds of the multiverse.

Production Co./Producers: AGBO’s Anthony and Joe Russo, Daniel Scheinert, Dan Kwan, Jonathan Wang.

Prediction: PREMIERES.

U.S. Distributor: A24.

Interview: Marjane Satrapi & Vincent Paronnaud – Persepolis

The thrill of meeting Marjane Satrapi reminded me of being 6 years old at Disney Land when I met the living, breathing Cinderella. Except Cinderella was an actress with a blond wig and Marjane is the real woman behind her autobiographical graphic novel, turned movie, “Persepolis”. The distinctive mole on her nose and her dark sultry eyes rose off the page and appeared in front of me, smoking and speaking with a French accent.
