New trailer for On the Road

We have another new trailer for the upcoming film On the Road starring Garrett Hedlund, Sam Riley, and Kristen Stewart. It also showcases the US release date of December 2012.







I'm still excited for this movie.

UPDATE: On The Road international trailer debuts

The international trailer for the film adaptation of On the Road surfaced. It isn't all that different in terms of dialogue from the first trailer we received prior to Cannes but it's different enough. I usually prefer international trailers to US trailers for some reason. They always seem to be better put together.
On the Road stars Garrett Hedlund, Sam Riley, and Kristen Stewart. It is based off the classic Jack Kerouac novel of the same title. There is no US release date officially set just yet. I read a rumor of December 2012 but I don't think Sundance Selects and IFC have confirmed that.
UPDATE (8/7): IFC and Sundance Selects have set a release date for the film. We will see it here in the US on December 21, 2012. It shares the weekend with This is 40, The Impossible, and Jack Reacher. I highly doubt On the Road will be getting a wide release, though. As much as I would love a wide release it probably isn't going to happen because it is such an independent-like film. Unless it does really well it might have to wait for DVD or an early On Demand engagement.

New 1-min clip of On the Road

There is a new extended clip of On the Road thanks to the press surrounding Cannes 2012. If features Sam Riley (Sal), Kristen Stewart (Marylou), and Garrett Hedlund (Dean).

I have been following this one, as you may know, because I really liked the book. The casting still kind of confuses me but I am rolling with it. The movie is almost 2 years old already so it's not like you can bitch too much. I am currently re-reading the book because it has been like 5-6 years since I last read it and I am quite enjoying myself. I can't wait to see the movie whenever it is available. Rumors are saying we will get it in the US this fall via IFC, AMC, and Sundance Selects. The distribution isn't the rumor but the release date is.

IFC and Sundance Selects to distribute On the Road

This is pretty good news. IFC Films and Sundance Selects have acquired distribution rights for On the Road. There still is no US release date but with this distribution pickup rumors of this fall are swirling around. The film will be shown at Cannes 2012.

I am a fan of the book and people are saying the movie is fantastic so yes... I am very excited. If it is that good a fall 2012 release is a very positive thing when it comes to the award season. It's not too late but it's not too early. Let's hope!
