Alpha Dog Moves to Universal Pictures
Universal Pictures has picked up distribution rights for the Nick Cassavetes-directed Alpha Dog from New Line Cinema, which was previously eyeing a spring 2006 release.
Universal plans to open the drama on more than 1,000 screens in the first quarter of 2007. The studio may also release it this December for an Oscar-qualifying run.
Inspired by actual events, Alpha Dog revolves around a mid-level drug dealer from the San Gabriel Valley whose thirst for power led him to become, at 19, the youngest man ever to appear on the FBI’s Most Wanted list.
Emile Hirsch stars as teenage suburban drug dealer Johnny Truelove, an ambitious young man whose lifestyle is a mecca for guns, sex and drugs. When a “client” cheats Johnny and a deal goes bad, he devises a plan to get his money back by kidnapping the client’s younger brother – but it’s not a typical kidnapping when it turns out that everyone knows and likes the kid.
So what now? Things take an unexpected twist as Johnny and his crew get caught up in the dangerous and violent world they once idealized.
Ben Foster, Shawn Hatosy, Sharon Stone, Justin Timberlake and Bruce Willis also star.
Universal came in as distributor of the film following a disagreement over release strategy between New Line and Cassavetes and producer/financier Sidney Kimmel. New Line is said to have favored a Crash-like platform release.
Cassavetes, who directed The Notebook and John Q for that studio, felt Alpha Dog deserved a comparable wide release. Universal agreed with Cassavetes and Kimmel.
