An Update on the We're All Gonna Die Release

Hey folks!

We've been getting great questions about when We're All Gonna Die is going to be available to watch and we've finally got some info for you! There's also a huge part y'all can play, but we'll get into that in a sec.

The short version is: We're All Gonna Die will be in theaters* on March 7th! 

Before I elaborate on that asterisk, here comes the long version of the story.

Exploring theatrical distribution on the indie side, without a studio backing this release, has been a journey. We held on this announcement for some time because we initially had a deal brewing with Cinemark theaters (big-time distro, 500 locations, 42 states!) for WAGD to play on a huge number of their screens starting on January 24th. That conversation was developing until we got the news that because a pesky few movies (cough WICKED cough GLADIATOR 2) did so well at the box office, the major studios and Cinemark's plans for Q1 shifted, and there wasn't room for WAGD anymore.

We got that news right before the holidays so since then our contact has been going through individual programmers to see which theaters we could play in. We were planning on keeping a January release date until continued conversations within the team concluded that early March gave us our best shot at a proper marketing and distribution plan.

So what do we mean when we say WAGD is gonna be in theaters? We currently have a list of 10+ confirmed theaters in the US (which will be updated on a site we're creating), but we're hoping to grow that list as much as possible before our new release date of March 7. Which is where YOU come in.

Do you have a local theater near you that you love? If it's an independently owned location (aka not AMC, Regal, or Cinemark), we wanna know about it! We're asking folks to 1) let us know about your favorite local theatrical venues, and THEN 2) contact said venues expressing your extreme interest in having WAGD play there!

In fact, we've made this handy google form so you can share info with us AND it includes a handy email template that you can copy and send to your fav theater: Help RJ Get WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE Into More Theaters!

It's been a long, fascinating road to get this indie story out there but hopefully with some more good luck, you'll get the chance to see We're All Gonna Die very soon. Thanks for your support and assist! More news as we keep going!

Definitely stay tuned as we're trying to get into more theaters over the next few weeks. What state are you in?

Is it going to be released on the patreon? There aren't many independent theaters near me, and not many in my state as a whole. I wasn't able to go on the 7th so I'm hoping I'll still be able to see it at some point.

It may not be part of our initial push but it's definitely still helpful. Thank you!

Oops didn't realize it was US only πŸ˜… sent some Canadian venues for you to consider if you go that route
