Coppola Launches Six-City Megalopolis Theater Tour

News summary

Francis Ford Coppola is launching a six-city U.S. tour, organized in partnership with Live Nation, to screen his self-financed film 'Megalopolis' exclusively in theaters, followed by interactive 'How to Change Our Future' discussions. The film stars Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito, and Nathalie Emmanuel and is set in a futuristic New York called New Rome, exploring utopian ambition, political polarization, and societal transformation. Tour stops include Red Bank, Chicago, Denver, Dallas, and San Francisco, with Coppola participating in a Q&A session at each event. After its Cannes premiere and a disappointing box office run, Coppola has withheld 'Megalopolis' from streaming platforms, insisting it be viewed in cinemas. Despite mixed reviews and financial losses, Coppola believes in the film's long-term impact and hopes the tour will prompt debate about the future of society and the arts. The film’s unconventional release and Coppola’s personal risk have sparked discussion about the evolving value of cinema.
