Starz Lands Two Exclusive World Premieres With Award-Winning Casts
Monday December 4, 11:24 am ET
Fable 'Neverwas' Stars Aaron Eckhart, Brittany Murphy and Oscar(R) Winners and Nominees Ian McKellen, William Hurt, Nick Nolte and Jessica Lange
Heartwarming 'Our Very Own' Stars Allison Janney, Jason Ritter, Autumn Reeser and Cheryl Hines
ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Dec. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Starz Entertainment has acquired two world premiere films both filled with award-winning casts: "Neverwas" and "Our Very Own," premiering exclusively in December on Starz and Starz Cinema respectively. Both films have never appeared in any medium, including theatrical, video, etc.
Our Very Own" was conceived by the films' director Cameron Watson, a Shelbyville, Tennessee native (where the film takes place). It is a semi-autobiographic tale set in 1978 starring Allison Janney ("The West Wing"), who was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award, Keith Carradine ("Deadwood") and Cheryl Hines ("Curb Your Enthusiasm"), along with rising stars Jason Ritter ("The Class"),
Autumn Reeser ("The O.C.") and Hilarie Burton ("One Tree Hill").
In "Our Very Own," five local teens are excited about the triumphant return of another Shelbyville native, Sondra Locke, who starred with her then-partner Clint Eastwood in several films of the era, including "Any Which Way But Loose." The teenagers hope to follow the movie star out of Shelbyville, but at the same time, one member of the group is facing a personal family crisis.
"Our Very Own" premieres Monday, December 11th at 6:40 p.m. on Starz Cinema.
