Quiver Distribution acquires North American distribution rights to the film adaptation of Eugene O’Neill’s Pulitzer-winning play “Long Day’s Journey Into Night.” The movie stars Jessica Lange, who reprises her Tony-winning stage role as Mary Tyrone, alongside Ed Harris.
Quiver plans a limited theatrical release on Sept. 25, with additional attention given through a special screening at Film at Lincoln Center, according to the reports. Deadline and Variety both frame the acquisition as a key step for bringing the screen adaptation to U.S. audiences.
While both outlets agree on the lead cast, source title, and release date, they emphasize similar but not identical details. Deadline highlights the acquisition as an exclusive and references a broader cast element, while Variety foregrounds the specifics of Lange’s character and the partnership with Harris as her husband, James. Both outlets describe Quiver as the distributor handling the North American market.
