Jodie Foster’s long in-the-can movie, The Beaver, will finally get a release next year. Mel Gibson and all…
You probably know the story of the movie The Beaver by now, and how director Jodie Foster had the film finished, locked for release, and then Mel Gibson, the star of the movie, managed to self destruct again.
Since then, the film has been yanked from the release schedules as Summit Entertainment worked out just what to do with it. For the film had, to be fair, generated some buzz. The idea of Gibson only talking through a beaver glove puppet was arguably the most off-the-wall idea of the year, and there's been considerable interest in seeing the film.
Well, with the release of a trailer a week or two back, signs were that Summit was prepping it for release. And now Deadline has confirmed that The Beaver has been given a US release date of 23rd March in limited cities, before going wide on 8th April.
In the UK, the film currently has no fixed release date, but we'll keep you posted.
