Back in July we talked a little bit about Malcolm & Marie, presumably the first full-length feature film to be entirely conceived in quarantine (and the lengthy list of COVID-compliant precautions that made it possible). Now, the romantic drama has a home with Netflix. Per Variety and Deadline, the streaming giant purchased the rights to Euphoria creator Sam Levinson’s project for a modest $30 million during the virtual Toronto International Film Festival—one of the highest buyouts to come out of a festival.
