The Toronto International Film Festival unveiled the bulk of the lineup to its 51st edition, setting world premieres for Chris Rock’s drama “Misty Green” and Peter Farrelly’s Sylvester Stallone film “I Play Rocky.”
TIFF, North America’s largest film festival, annually hosts some of the fall’s most anticipated titles. On July 20, it revealed more than 60 films that will play in the festival’s gala and special presentations sections.
Those include the world premieres of Rock’s fourth film as director and first for A24; Farrelly’s drama about the making of “Rocky”; and Courteney Cox’s true-crime drama “Evil Genius.”
