Netflix has secured distribution rights for ‘His Three Daughters,’ directed by Azazel Jacobs and starring Natasha Lyonne, Elizabeth Olsen, and Carrie Coon, for under $7 million. The film premiered at the 2023 Toronto Film Festival and received high praise, with a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a 3.6 rating on Letterboxd, and an 8.9 rating on IMDb, marking it as one of Olsen’s most acclaimed projects.
‘His Three Daughters’ Plot:
When their father’s health worsens, three estranged sisters come together to try to plan for the inevitable. The eldest is high-strung Katie (Carrie Coon), who talks a hundred miles a minute and stresses about all the practical details. The middle sister, Rachel (Natasha Lyonne), is ready to check out after spending a year caring for the man. The youngest sibling, Christina (Elizabeth Olsen), seems always on the verge of tears, trying to clumsily keep the peace while they’re all stuck in their father’s small apartment.
The three actors deliver absorbing performances, defining distinct personalities, each with their own perspective on how to deal with the situation. Their father remains hidden from our view, confined to his bed, but as the daughters take turns butting heads, we slowly piece together a portrait through the women he raised.
The film also stars Jovan Adepo, Jay O. Sanders, Rudy Galvan, Jose Febus, Randy Ramos Jr., and Jasmine Bracey.
‘His Three Daughters’ marks Netflix’s fourth major deal at the Toronto Film Festival. They paid around $20 million for ‘Hit Man,’ directed by Richard Linklater, and over $10 million for ‘Woman of the Hour,’ directed by Anna Kendrick. They also acquired ‘Mountain Queen: The Summits of Lhakpa Sherpa,’ a documentary about the first Nepali woman to summit Mount Everest.
