As a longtime gamer and film enthusiast, I can’t help but feel excited about the upcoming Toronto Film Festival‘s opening and closing films, “Nutcrackers” and “The Deb,” respectively. Having grown up watching Ben Stiller in some of my favorite movies like “Night at the Museum” and “Zoolander,” it’s thrilling to see him return to the big screen as a straight-laced workaholic in “Nutcrackers.”
The comedy film “Nutcrackers,” directed by David Gordon Green and featuring Ben Stiller, will officially begin the 2024 Toronto Film Festival on September 5th.
In a shift from his recent roles in Mike White’s “Brad’s Status” and Noah Baumbach’s “The Meyerowitz Stories,” both released in 2017, Ben Stiller will make his next film debut at the world premiere of the TIFF opener. This event takes place at Roy Thomson Hall, where a diverse audience of moviegoers, including both industry professionals and regular viewers, gather.
Leland Douglas penned down the story of Mike (Stiller), a dedicated worker with a strict routine, who unexpectedly finds himself in charge of his four nephews following their parents’ tragic car accident death. After several chaotic weeks on the farm, Mike comes to the heartwarming realization that the children have found him a new home and family in him.
The nutcracker film, featuring a stellar ensemble of Linda Cardellini, Edi Patterson, Tim Heidecker, and Toby Huss, is predicted to shine brightly with its famous stars as they make their way up the red carpet, led by Gordon Green, on the movie’s premiere night at Roy Thompson Hall.
I was thrilled to be a part of the production of “Nutcrackers” under Stiller’s Red Hour Productions label in 2017. As an ardent fan, it was a surreal experience attending the Toronto premiere of Mike White’s heartwarming father-son film “Brad’s Status.” UTA Independent Film Group took care of sales for this extraordinary project.
As a gamer, I’m always excited about the latest announcements in the entertainment world. And Tuesday brought some exciting news from Toronto! They revealed that “The Deb,” Rebel Wilson’s directorial debut based on the original Australian musical of the same name, will be the closing film at the 2024 edition. In this heartwarming story, I embody the character of Taylah Simpkins, a lovable farm girl and high school underdog. I’m absolutely positive that the upcoming Debutante Ball, or “the Deb,” is my one and only opportunity to shake off my old labels and redefine myself. Can’t wait to join Taylah on her journey of self-discovery!
When my cynical city cousin Maeve (Charlotte MacInnes) was forced to leave her urban life behind and join me in the struggling town of Dunburn due to a drought, she saw the upcoming ball as an outdated and heteronormative mess. Determined to shake things up, we both embarked on a journey to discover self-acceptance and maybe even find a date for the Deb.
In collaboration with Camp Sugar Productions, led by Rebel Wilson (“Senior Year,” “The Hustle”), and Bunya Productions, known for their awards-winning Australian projects like “The Drover’s Wife” and “Mystery Road,” The Deb is being developed. Danny Cohen executive produces on behalf of Access Entertainment by Blavatnik.
In the September event of Toronto, we begin with “Nutcrackers” and end with “The Deb.” This is a common practice for Toronto, as it tends to feature popular, crowd-pleasing films to kick off and conclude the festival. Anita Lee, Toronto’s chief programming officer, shared in a statement that this year’s festival promises to be an impressive one, filled with anticipated films that offer both humor and empathy, much like our opening and closing night picks – “Nutcrackers” and “The Deb.”
Last year at the start of TIFF’s 48th edition, the final film by anime legend Hayao Miyazaki of Japan, titled “The Boy and the Heron, was showcased. In contrast, the 2022 festival commenced with the inspiring Netflix drama The Swimmers by Sally El Hosaini, which tells the true story of two sisters from Syria who faced challenges to reach the 2016 Rio Olympics.
In September this year, the Toronto Film Festival will mark its 49th anniversary and last from the 5th to the 10th. Recently, TIFF announced the inclusion of new films in their 2024 schedule: Ron Howard’s thriller “Eden,” Anderson .Paak’s film “K-Pop,” Sophie Deraspe’s production “Shepherds,” and Indian director Reema Kagti’s work titled “Superboys of Malegaon.”
Other titles already booked into Toronto are world premieres for Elton John: Never Too Late, from director David Furnish and R.J. Cutler, Mike Flanagan’s The Life of Chuck and Marielle Heller’s Nightbitch, which stars Amy Adams as a stay-at-home-mom whose domestic life takes a surreal turn.
