As a cinephile, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve got the scoop on an exciting acquisition! Music Box Films’ niche label Doppelgänger Releasing has bagged the U.S. distribution rights for Toby Jones’ whimsical and cheerful comedy, “AJ Goes to the Dog Park.” So, get ready to catch this delightful film soon!
As a fervent appreciator of creative talent, I’m thrilled to acknowledge that Jones has made a name for himself as both a writer and storyboard artist, with his remarkable contributions gracing the Emmy-nominated animated series “Regular Show.” Notably, this is his inaugural venture into feature filmmaking.
The movie centers around an ordinary resident who cherishes the peaceful lifestyle of Fargo, North Dakota. When his beloved dog park is removed, this triggers a series of events that disrupt his life entirely, leading him on a remarkable journey to restore order, fish, struggle, scavenge, and mend things back to their original state, as described in a statement.
The movie titled ‘AJ Goes to the Dog Park’ was filmed in Fargo, where its lead actor, local resident A.J. Thompson, hails from.
The movie, initially showcased at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas, will be screened on April 25th, April 29th, and May 2nd at the Milwaukee Film Festival. Notably, Jones is expected to attend on the 29th and 2nd of May. Doppelgänger has scheduled a cinematic release for the film on July 25th, followed by home viewing availability. Meanwhile, Cartuna will manage the Blu-ray edition’s distribution.
Music Box Films stated: “Doppelgänger Releasing often embraces a diverse spectrum of genre films, encompassing everything from folk horror and home invasion thrillers to comedies centered on heavy metal and medical themes. ‘AJ Goes to the Dog Park’ is a unique case, a lighthearted comedy that swiftly transitions between jokes. We eagerly anticipate sharing this film with audiences in a cinema, park for dogs or bloggers, near you.
Jones stated: “We filmed ‘AJ Goes to the Dog Park’ in Fargo, North Dakota during nights and weekends over a span of three years, purely for the sake of crafting something incredibly bizarre and comical. We are thrilled to collaborate with Doppelgänger Releasing in sharing this movie with a larger audience, hoping that some will find amusement in our humor.
Toby is undeniably rising as a skilled craftsman in cinematography. His genuine approach to filmmaking has spawned a unique, sincere concept that makes ‘Fargo’ the movie that best embodies its essence.
The deal for selling the movie was handled by Brian Andreotti from Doppelgänger Releasing, as well as Liz Manashil who represented the film creators.
