Hitting Australian Cinemas Soon?
David Michôn’s The King had a Venice Film Festival world premiere, which has some people questioning whether or not he’ll end up going down the same route for this in September. That being said, Wizards! doesn’t seem like a big awards player, so maybe A24 will hold out for a regular release in 2024 instead.
