Bleecker Street Films will release its sci-fi comedy/drama JULES on VOD and digital platforms on September 12th, 2023. The film world premiered at this year’s Sonoma Film Festival and then debuted in theaters on August 11th.

Jules was directed by Marc Turtletaub and written by Gavin Steckler. It stars Ben Kingsley, Harriet Sansom Harris, Zoë Winters, Jade Quon and Jane Curtin. Kingsley plays a man named Milton, who lives a quiet life of routine in a small western Pennsylvania town, but finds his day upended when a UFO and its extra-terrestrial passenger crash land in his backyard.

The ‘alien’ in the film was used in a funny viral marketing stunt over the summer, see the video below. The release date has been added to our streaming calendar.
