\n\tEXCLUSIVE<\/strong>: Netflix<\/a> is taking U.S. rights to Romain Gavras\u2019 starry satire Sacrifice<\/a>, starring Chris Evans (Captain America), Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen\u2019s Gambit), Salma Hayek Pinault (Frida) and\u00a0Vincent Cassel<\/a>\u00a0(La Haine).<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Cannes<\/a> market deal for Gavras\u2019 English-language debut comes after the film debuted at Toronto last year. CAA Media Finance brokered the deal with the streamer.<\/p>\n

\n\tAlso starring are John Malkovich<\/a>\u00a0(Being John Malkovich), Swedish rapper Yung Lean in his film debut, Ambika Mod (One Day), singer and actress\u00a0Charli xcx<\/a>\u00a0(I Want Your Sex), and more.<\/p>\n

\n\tWe can also reveal the international buyers for the film. Rocket Science has cut deals in the UK (Black Bear), Germany, Austria, Switzerland (DCM), Italy (Eagle), Spain (YouPlanet), Canada (Elevation), Portugal (Lusomundo), Latin America (Sun), Poland (KinoSwiat), EE (Prorom\/Blitz) South Africa (Empire), CIS\/Baltic States (Volga), Singapore (Shaw), Philippines (Pioneer) Middle East (Front Row), Airlines (Anuvu), and Scandinavia (Mis Label).<\/p>\n

\n\tWe understand there will likely be a theatrical corridor for the international buyers before Netflix releases stateside. Dates have yet to be set but late summer\/fall is in play.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe synopsis reads: \u201cSacrifice tells the story of Joan (Taylor-Joy), a zealous spirit driven by a volcanic prophecy only she can hear, who is on a mission to save the world from a fiery reckoning. Along with her militia of mystical disciples, she hijacks a glamorous charity gala and takes three hostages: Mike Tyler, a beleaguered movie star desperate for redemption, Bracken, the world\u2019s richest man, and Katie, who\u2019s just unlucky. They are forced on a journey, as hilarious as it is epic, through forest and fire until Mike faces the ultimate question: what would he sacrifice for humanity?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDeadline\u2019s Damon Wise described the film<\/a> as \u201can entertaining eco-satire with a surprisingly emotional impact\u201d.<\/p>\n

Giorgos Karnavas of Heretic is producing and Kate Glover of Neversleep Pictures is co-producing. Robert Walak and Jacob Perlin for Iconoclast, Mid March Media, Film4 and Romain Gavras are executive producing.\u00a0Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Evans and Will Arbery are executive producers along with Gucci Productions.<\/p>\n
