Lionsgate has acquired North America and UK distribution rights to “Wet,” the latest film by writer-director Alma Har’el, with production planned to begin in 2027. The cast includes Connor Storrie, Rebecca Ferguson, Odessa A’zion (A’Zion), Javier Bardem, Rosalía (Rosalia) and Lukas Haas.
Coverage emphasizes the deal’s industry significance and the film’s high-profile ensemble. Multiple outlets frame “Wet” as an “audacious” or notable new project from Har’el, building on her prior credited work in major film releases. One outlet’s summary highlights additional production/distribution context, including the rights’ geographic scope.
While all sources agree on the core news—Lionsgate acquiring North America and UK rights and the main cast—differences lie in how much background is provided on the creators and which specifics are foregrounded, such as production timing.
