Club Kid draws eight-figure offers at Cannes

Jordan Firstman's buzzy film Club Kid has sparked strong interest at the Cannes Film Festival, with multiple major studios submitting offers in the eight-figure range. The project, which has drawn praise for its commercial appeal and potential awards recognition, follows a washed-up party promoter forced to change his ways.

The movie has been a focal point of conversations at the festival over the past day. Studio buyers highlighted its broad appeal across age groups, describing it as the most commercial title on offer. Others noted its strong domestic prospects and heartfelt tone, though some international interest has been more measured.
