Focus sets Ryan Reynolds sci-fi thriller ‘Selfless’ for winter 2015

MUMBAI: As part of the October deal that saw FilmDistrict being absorbed into Focus Features, the latter has taken over distribution of two more titles and announced a new release date for one of them.

The sci-fi thriller Selfless, starring Ryan Reynolds, originally had been set for September 2014 but now will see day of light on 27 February 2015. It centers on a terminally ill billionaire who buys a chance for eternal life through an experimental underground medical procedure. Focus also will handle the  Zac Efron flick That Awkward Moment, which was  retitled  from Are We Officially Dating? a few months ago. Its release date remains 31 January. Focus  said last month that it will release the former FilmDistrict title Insidious: Chapter 3 in April 2015.
