Universal To Distribute Ricky Gervais’s This Side Of The Truth
Variety Reports:
“Universal Pictures Intl. has acquired the overseas distribution rights to “This Side of the Truth,” a comedy written and directed by Ricky Gervais and Matthew Robinson. Gervais stars as a storyteller who lives in a world where nobody lies; he patents the fib and uses it to become a star. Jennifer Garner, Rob Lowe and Louis C.K. star; Tina Fey, Christopher Guest, Jeffrey Tambor, John Hodgman and Jonah Hill have supporting roles. Pic marks Gervais’ feature film debut after creating hit series “The Office” and “Extras.”
YES! finally something to help me cope with the “Day The Earth Stood Still” Re-make news. Ever since Ricky Gervais announced that he was doing this film I was just so pumped to see it. I absolutley love everything about it. It has a very fun and original story that sounds hilarious. It has one heck of a cast. And Ricky Gervais…Nuff said. I am so glad that they will be releasing this film internationally now. Ricky Gervais is simply comedic gold and I am so glad that the world will be able to see him now. A toast to Universal.- Movie Rat Mike
