Bleecker Street has acquired U.S. rights to the psychological thriller, “NDA,” starring Golden Globe winner Rachel Zegler (“West Side Story,” “Evita”), Penn Badgley (“You”) and Academy Award nominee Amy Ryan (“Gone Baby Gone,” “The Wire”). The film, which is currently in production in New York, is Audrey Ellis Fox’s debut feature.
Zegler stars as Dana, a woman facing a “maddening day of mediation for an office harassment claim she filed.” The logline explains: “As the clock ticks towards an immutable deadline, she questions the price of her silence, sanity and the truth.”
“I’m thrilled to be collaborating with Rachel, Penn, Amy, Bleecker and the rest of this exceptional team to bring my film to screen,” said Ellis Fox, whose original script for the film was featured on the 2024 Black List. “’NDA’ is a story about power and perception, and it’s incredibly exciting to work with partners who so fiercely believe in its vision.”
“NDA” will be produced by Jared Ian Goldman and Zola Elgart Glassman (for Mighty Engine); Keith Calder and Jess Wu Calder (SNOOT); Caitlin Gold (Tanbark Pictures); and Daniel Ginsberg (In the Cut Productions). Ellis Fox will executive produce the project alongside Bleecker Street CEO Kent Sanderson, Tyler DiNapoli and Miranda King, as well as Christian Hall.
