From Warner Bros. Pictures and Amazon Studios, “The Goldfinch” is the film adaptation of Donna Tartt’s globally acclaimed best-selling novel, which won the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction.
Directed by BAFTA Award winner John Crowley, the film features a multigenerational cast led by Ansel Elgort as Theo Decker and Academy Award winner Nicole Kidman as Mrs. Barbour.
Theodore “Theo” Decker was 13 years old when his mother was killed in a bombing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The tragedy changes the course of his life, sending him on a stirring odyssey of grief and guilt, reinvention and redemption, and even love. Through it all, he holds on to one tangible piece of hope from that terrible day…a painting of a tiny bird chained to its perch – The Goldfinch.
“The Goldfinch” is produced by Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson. The screenplay is by Oscar nominee Peter Straughan, based on the novel by Donna Tartt, which spent 30 weeks on The New York Times Best Sellers list.
The film also stars Oakes Fegley, Aneurin Barnard, Finn Wolfhard, Sarah Paulson, Luke Wilson and Jeffrey Wright.
“The Goldfinch” is a presentation of Warner Bros. Pictures, in association with Amazon Studios, Color Force Production and John Crowley Film.
The film is slated to release on September 13, 2019.
