“I CARE A LOT”

FROM BLACK BEAR PICTURES

Barcelona, SPAIN — Eiza González (Baby Driver, Alita:Battle Angel) is set to join Academy Award-nominee Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl, A Private War) and Golden Globe-winner Peter Dinklage (“Game of Thrones”) in Black Bear Pictures’ I Care a Lot, it was announced today during the STXinternational presentation out of CineEurope.

STX International, a division of STX Entertainment, is handling international sales on the highly anticipated title and will also directly distribute in the UK and Ireland. 

The film will be directed by award-winning director J Blakeson (The Disappearance of Alice Creed, The 5^th Wave) from his own original screenplay.  Principal photography will commence this July in Boston.

Teddy Schwarzman’s Black Bear Pictures is producing and fully financing. Producers are Black Bear’s Schwarzman, Ben Stillman and Michael Heimler, alongside Blakeson. Sacha Guttenstein will executive produce.

Oscar-nominee Pike will play Marla Grayson, a highly successful legal guardian with a knack for using the law to her benefit and her elderly clients’ detriment, living a life of luxury at their expense. But when her seemingly innocent next victim turns out to have dangerous secrets, Marla must use every ounce of her wit and cunning to stay alive in this wry, cutting and wholly original thriller.

González’s credits include Baby Driver and the upcoming films Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, Godzilla vs. Kong, and Bloodshot.
