    • Abstract:
      This article reports that two-time Palme d'Or-winning director Emir Kusturica is co-producing his next movie "Promise Me This," with hot French production company Fidelite Productions. Budgeted at about $8.7 million, shooting for the film will begin in 1006 outside Belgrade, using a domestic cast. StudioCanal, the movie distribution arm of French pay TV group Canal Plus SA, has picked up French theatrical and video rights and will handle international sales. StudioCanal co-produced Kusturica's last feature, "Life Is a Miracle," as the first of a three-picture first-look deal between the director and then StudioCanal subsidiary Les Films Alain Sarde.
