Summit bags distribution rights of Adaline

MUMBAI: Entertainment has bagged the domestic distribution rights of Adaline, a romantic drama.

Starring Katherine Heigl and directed by Andy Tennant, Adaline is a turn-of-the-20th-century tale of a strangely ageless young woman who falls in love after years of isolation.

Set for release in early 2012, the film produced by Sidney Kimmel and Jim Tauber will go on the floors in March next year.

Summit chief Rob Friedman summed up the film thus: “a fantastic story that we believe will resonate with the American audience.”

Lakeshore International and Sierra Pictures will have the worldwide rights of the film.
