TAA Alum 'Four' Acquired By Wolfe

After a 2012 that included a Spirit Award nomination and an impressive festival run that included a Best Performance prize at the Los Angeles Film Festival and Best Narrative Feature award at Urbanworld, Joshua Sanchez's Four (Tribeca All Access®, 2007) is kicking off 2013 in style with a distribution deal with Wolfe Releasing. The debut feature from Sanchez, Four is an adaptation from the play by Christopher Shinn which stars Wendell Pierce (The Wire) as Joe, a black, middle-aged man who meets June, a white teenage boy, online. The pair decide to meet and go out on a date on the 4th of July. Unbeknownst to them, Joe's daughter is also out on a date that night with a basketball player. As the night unfolds, the couples lives will change. No mention yet when Wolfe, which took domestic and international rights, will release the film. Four will screen next at BAM on Sunday; its lead, Pierce, is nominated for Best Male Lead at the Film Independent Spirit Awards on Feb. 23.
