Following film festival premieres earlier this year including Sundance and Cannes, IFC has now set an October 19th release date for Paul Dano’s directorial debut Wildlife and released the project’s first trailer.
Jake Gyllenhaal, Carey Mulligan, Ed Oxenbould and Bill Camp co-star in the film which Dano co-wrote with his wife and The Big Sick actress Zoe Kazan based on Richard Ford’s novel of the same name.
Shot in Montana and Oklahoma and set in the early 1960s, the story follows teenage Joe who witnesses his parents’ marriage begin falling apart after they move to Montana and his mother falls in love with another man.
