We posted here a couple of weeks ago that Ascot Elite was to distribute Robert Pattinson  “Good Time” in Germany, Switzerland, Austria & Beneluxa nd now ScreenDaily confirms:

Ascot Elite Entertainment Group has finalised rights to a string of high-profile independent titles for German-speaking Europe.

The company’s AFM haul includes all rights to a new documentary biopic about iconic musician Prince from US sales outfit 13 Films.

…

Meanwhile, Robert Pattinson (Twilight), Jennifer Jason Leigh (The Hateful Eight) and Oscar-winner Barkhad Abdi (Captain Phillips) star in upcoming crime-drama Good Time, about a bank robber who finds himself unable to evade those who are looking for him. Currently in post-production, the film is being lined up for a 2017 release.

Ascot Elite bought the US indie title from Memento Films. A24 has US rights.

…

Ascot Elite COO Stephan Giger commented on the acquisitions: “It was a very fruitful trip to California and I’m pleased to continue our relationship with Altitude on their three upcoming commercial projects and I’m equally happy to continue working with Memento Films, after La Sage Femme, this time with an English-speaking project with a great script and a killer promo.
