\n\tEXCLUSIVE<\/strong>: Below is your first look at Simon Pegg<\/a> and Sofia Boutella<\/a> in the new drama Only What We Carry<\/a>, which also stars Quentin Tarantino<\/a>, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Liam Hellmann and Lizzy McAlpine in her feature film debut.<\/p>\n

\n\tInternational Film Trust has boarded and will launch world sales at this week\u2019s European Film Market. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe Normandy-set drama, currently in post-production, unfolds \u201con the windswept coast of Deauville, and follows Julian Johns (Pegg), a once-formidable Moulin Rouge artistic director whose isolated life is upended when former dancer Charlotte Levant (Boutella) seeks him out after reading a news article revealing his whereabouts. Her arrival forces both to confront unresolved grief, buried truths and the emotional cost of the lives they\u2019ve left behind. Tarantino appears as Julian\u2019s publisher, who lives at the chateau as Julian writes his memoir, while Gainsbourg plays Charlotte\u2019s fiercely protective sister.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe movie marks Tarantino\u2019s biggest on screen movie role since the Robert Rodriguez classic\u00a0From Dusk Til Dawn\u00a0in 1996. Pegg and Boutella previously starred together in Star Trek Beyond.<\/p>\n

\n\tWritten and directed by Jamie Adams, the project is said to continue the filmmaker\u2019s improvisation-driven approach, inspired by the work of Eric Rohmer and Hong Sang Soo.<\/p>\n

\n\tPic is produced by Charles Benoin, Hellmann and Jouri Smit. Executive producers include Alan Ganansia, Richard Althoff, Laura Auclair, Theodoros Ornithopoulos, Jihane Salim, Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique Mathias, Alain B\u00e9rard, Audrey Boccadifuocco <\/strong>and Pegg.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThanks to Charles Benoin, I joined this adventure the way you join a family. It was a real honor of contributing as an executive producer to make this project possible, and a privilege to witness this five-star cast evolve, create and improvise under our eyes,\u201d said Auclair.<\/p>\n

\n\tGanansia added: \u201cI came onto the project believing in the team, though at first the process felt abstract, improvisation, no traditional script, a lot of unknowns. But once I was on set, it all clicked. There was a rare, natural energy, nothing forced or over-engineered. What could have been chaotic became incredibly focused. Watching the film reveal itself in real time was honestly magical, and it confirmed we were part of something truly special.\u201d<\/p>\n
