Mubi Acquires Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson’s ‘Die My Love’ in $24 Million Cannes Deal
The territories include America, the U.K. Ireland, Italy and more

Mubi has acquired the rights to Lynne Ramsay’s Die My Love in the U.S. and multiple territories in a deal totaling $24 million.
The movie, starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson, world premiered at Cannes on Saturday evening to a six-minute standing ovation.
The acquisition marks the first major sale of this year’s Cannes. The territories include North America, the U.K., Ireland, Italy, Spain, Benelux, Latin America, Turkey, Australia, Germany, Austria and India.
Die My Love is based on author Ariana Harwicz’s 2017 novel of the same name, which centers on a new mother who enters psychosis after developing postpartum depression. Ramsay’s adaptation of “Die, My Love” is set in rural America and revolves around Lawrence’s character, a woman who has just had a baby and is engulfed by love and madness, to which her husband (Pattinson) appears oblivious.
It marks Ramsay’s comeback to Cannes after presenting the 2017 thriller “You Were Never Really Here,” which starred Joaquin Phoenix and won best screenplay.
“Die My Love” is produced by Excellent Cadaver, Black Label Media and Sikelia Productions. The producers include Justine Ciarrocchi, Jennifer Lawrence, Martin Scorsese, Andrea Calderwood, Molly Smith, Trent Luckinbill and Thad Luckinbill. The movie is repped by Patrick Wachsberger’s new banner 193.
Mubi is at Cannes with four films in competition, including Joachim Trier’s “Sentimental Value,” Akinola Davies’ “My Father’s Shadow” and “The History of Sound,” a love story that’s one of the highest-profile films at the festival due to red-hot pairing of Paul Mescal and Josh O’Connor.
Another of Mubi’s Cannes premieres is Kelly Reichardt’s heist thriller “The Mastermind,” which also stars O’Connor, the first production it has developed and fully financed.
