Other titles in the program include the Zellner brothers’ Jesse Eisenberg and Riley Keough-starrer Sasquatch Sunset, Chiwetel Ejiofor’s adaptation of Jeff Hobbs’ bestselling biography Rob Peace, and Shuchi Talati’s Girls Will Be Girls, which won the 2024 Sundance Film Festival Audience Award. The documentaries include Skywalkers: A Love Story by multi-Emmy award-winning filmmaker Jeff Zimbalist and Never Look Away by Lucy Lawless in her directorial debut.

There will also be a short film program dedicated to films either produced in the UK or made by filmmakers based in the UK. This year’s program will see the return of the ever-popular Surprise Film, where festival goers can watch an unannounced title not yet seen in the UK. The Surprise films in previous years included Bart Layton’s American Animals, Halina Reijn’s Bodies Bodies Bodies, and Geremy Jasper’s Patti Cake$.

The Sundance Film Festival: London 2024 will also showcase highlights of Sundance features and shorts presented, which will be announced in weeks to come.

“Over the course of four incredible days at Picturehouse Central we’ll share an extraordinary array of discoveries from January’s Sundance Film Festival in Utah, showcasing the boundless creativity of visionary filmmakers, and featuring mesmerizing performances and compelling documentary subjects,” said Eugene Hernandez, Director, Sundance Film Festival and Public Programming.
