Variety reports that Mel Gibson's latest movie, THE PASSION, may be close to finding a domestic distributor. According to the trade, at least four indie divisions and/or Hollywood studios -- Newmarket Capital Group, Paramount Classics, Sony Classics and Lions Gate Films -- are interested in releasing the film to North American audiences. So far the movie hasn't been screened to any representatives from the distributors.
It's a positive sign that, even with the controversy sparked by the film among religious organizations, audiences will have the chance to see the movie shortly. Gibson has stated that he hopes for a release of THE PASSION around April of next year.
