Before Midnight Sells Out Just Before Berlin Premiere

IM Global has sold out Richard Linklater’s Before Midnight, the final film in the Julie Delpy-Ethan Hawke trilogy. The raft of deals was announced hours before the film made its international premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival following its launch at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, where Sony Pictures Classics nabbed U.S. and U.K. rights.

The Berlin Actors Roundtable

The talent gathered for The Hollywood Reporter’s Berlin actors Roundtable are certainly not reluctant to take a walk on the wild side at this year’s Berlinale. Peter Sarsgaard, 41, is a brutal pimp porn husband in Lovelace; Fallon Goodson, 27, plays James Franco’s unstable sister in Maladies; Melanie Laurent, 29, and Jack Huston, 30, are doomed lovers in Bille August’s literary adaptation Night Train to Lisbon; and newcomer Mikkel Boe Folsgaard, 28, the Danish Shooting Star in Berlin this year, won the Berlinale’s best actor Silver Bear in 2012 for his first movie role, as a mad king in the Oscar-nominated A Royal Affair.
