that was quick! that's a good sign! they distributed really good films. i'm getting more & more excited about this project. Lets hope for a decent festival premier. I think the film benefited from the protest in Cannes, apparently Destroyer was one of the few female directed films available for sale at Cannes. But yay for Kidman and especially Karyn Kusama who has been given some much needed attention.

Annapurna has an excellent record of co-producing really amazing films like American Hustle, 20th Century Women, Her, The Master etc. but as a distribution company I guess it's still in its teething phase. Detroit was an excellent film but I don't know how it got lost during award season. I'm very excited that Destroyer is getting all that attention though. It's a really good sign.

This is really exciting but Annapurna has Blanchett and the girl from Jenkins' upcoming movie. How are they going to fit them three in the leading acting category?

They also have Backseat with Amy Adams, but she is believed to be supporting in it.

I cant believed Destroyer landed a film distributor, I mean we've come to expect Millenium or Alchemy or at Best TWC but these last couple of years its been A24, WB and Focus and now Annapurna!
Unfortunately, we have yet to see a box office hit, so I'd like to see some improvement in that aspect, especially if Destroyer can buck expectations and find an audience.

I'm not sure this will break her box office woes. It seems very dark and niche! I think it would need rave reviews and strong word of mouth...

I think these are great news, and it's amazing how this movie keeps popping in several awards predictions sites and blogs, and this could only raise her buzz for this one and maybe this will help in the future, and I think this can be a "Birth" case, with box office ok for this kind of movie and with great reviews for her performance and some nominations in the upcoming awards season. I mean, just look at her physical transformation for this one! (The Hours...cof...cof...)

It's true, more and more people are starting to predict her for "Destroyer" now that the script has been reviewed. She just needs the film to be well-received and then the nomination is hers. The fact that it was picked up by Annapurna is a good sign.

The wrap now reports that destroyer sold for at least 10 million, that is a substantial amount basically the financiers covered the budget and have made a profit just from distribution sales. now its up to annapurna to see if they can give the film a good release. link
