EXCLUSIVE: Sony Pictures Classics is closing a deal to acquire On Swift Horses, the Daniel Minahan-directed drama that premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last month as a Special Presentation. The film stars Daisy Edgar Jones, Jacob Elordi, Will Poulter and Diego Calva.
Pic takes place in the 1950s, where married Muriel and her brother in law Julius embark on separate but parallel straight life paths, only to discover their closeted desires bubbling to the surface. On Swift Horses is scripted by Bruce Kass and produced by Peter Spears, Theresa Page and Christine Vachon produced it.
UTA Independent Film Group is brokering the North American deal with SPC, and Black Bear International is handling the international territories.
