“BALLS OUT”
GETS NORTH AND LATIN AMERICAN DISTRIBUTION


THE ANDREW DISNEY-DIRECTED FILM WILL RELEASE JUNE 19th IN US THEATERS AND ON VOD

 
LOS ANGELES, CA (May 12, 2015)BALLS OUT, a comedy that premiered under the name INTRAMURAL at the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival, gets North American distribution through Orion Releasing, a company focused on multi-platform releases via specialized theatrical runs and premium video on demand services, and Latin American distribution through MGM. Directed by Andrew Disney and written by Bradley Jackson, BALLS OUT tells the story of 5th year college seniors who go for one last shot at glory in the semi-competitive world of intramural football. The film will be released theatrically and on VOD in the United States on June 19, 2015.

The “Best Guilty Pleasure” award winner at the 2014 Seattle International Film Festival, BALLS OUT stars Jake Lacy (”Girls”), Nikki Reed (Twilight Franchise), Kate McKinnon (“SNL”), Jay Pharoah (”SNL”), Beck Bennett (”SNL”), and Nick Kocher. It was produced by Russell Wayne Groves, Andrew Lee, Bradley Jackson, David Ward, and Red Sanders. Tucker Moore, Jason Netter, and Spence Jackson serve as executive producers.

With graduation, marriage, and an uncertain future on the horizon, fifth year senior Caleb Fuller (Jake Lacy) decides to do the one thing he vowed to never do again: get the ol’ flag football team back together. Now with the help of his Panther teammates and unorthodox head coach Grant Rosenfalis (Nick Kocher), Caleb must defy all odds in the hope of achieving the glory he once had. Set in the highly popular world of college intramural sports, BALLS OUT is the epic sports movie for the guys who don’t deserve one.

Odenkirk Provissiero Entertainment, CAA and attorney Lev Ginsburg represent both Andrew Disney and Bradley Jackson. Deborah McIntosh from WME negotiated the deal on behalf of the filmmakers.
