Later this month, UK-based global sales agent Protagonist Pictures will introduce the project to buyers at the Cannes Film Festival.

Entitled She Came to Me, the film follows a couple of teenagers who fight to prove to their parents that their young love is something that can last forever.

The cast also includes Anne Hathaway, Tahar Rahim, Marisa Tomei and Matthew Broderick.

The score is written by two-time Academy Award-winner Alexandre Desplat (The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Shape of Water).

Kulig rose to stardom after appearing opposite Polish actor Tomasz Kot in Paweł Pawlikowski's "Cold War". Premiered at the 2018 Cannes Festival, the film won Pawlikowski the prize for best director and received three Oscar nominations.
