Entitled Anniversary, the film is described as “a provocative” thriller about a close-knit family "that is torn apart as a new movement known as The Change envelops the country."
The screenplay, by Lori Rosene-Gambino, is based on an original story by Komasa and Rosene-Gambino.
Anniversary is the first collaboration between Lionsgate and Fifth Season.
Graham Taylor and Chris Rice, co-CEOs of Fifth Season, have told the media: “It’s rare to read a script that keeps you so captivated and emotionally invested like Anniversary does. Jan Komasa is the perfect filmmaker to bring this thrilling story to life and we are excited to go on this journey with Lionsgate, this talented filmmaking team, and this amazing cast.”
The film’s all-star cast includes Diane Lane (Man of Steel, Feud: Capote’s Women), Kyle Chandler (The Wolf of Wall Street, Manchester by the Sea), Madeline Brewer (The Handmaid’s Tale), Phoebe Dynevor (Bridgerton, Fair Play), Mckenna Grace (Ghostbusters: Afterlife) and Daryl McCormack (Good Luck to You, Leo Grande, Bad Sisters).
Jan Komasa, 41, is a graduate of the National Film School in Łódź, central Poland. He won an Oscar nomination for his 2019 drama Corpus Christi.
His other highly-acclaimed movies include Suicide Room (2011) and Warsaw 44 (2014).
