Romantic comedy ‘Advanced Chemistry’ wins worldwide distribution rights

EXCLUSIVE: Good Deed Entertainment has acquired worldwide distribution rights to the romantic comedy Advanced Chemistryin which Samba Schutte performs (Our flag means death), Chaunté Wayans (Tiffany Haddish Presents: They’re Ready), Sarah Burns (Barry), Kiran Deol (The sunny side), Iqbal Theba (Glee) and T’Keyah Crystal Keymah (This is so crowed).

Good Deed Entertainment plans to release the film in theaters on September 3.^rd and on digital platforms on October 8^th, 2024.

The film is directed by first-time director Etana Jacobson, and produced by Alec Moore, Jane Miller, Sarah Burns, and Jacobson, with Moore also writing the screenplay. The film was executive produced by Luke Taylor and Matthew Helderman of Buffalo 8. The film follows a scientist (Schutte) who injects his best friend (Wayans) with a compound he created to help her stop cheating on his wife (Burns), but when his wife believes her new obsession is suffocating her, she is given a dose as well, which backfires as she falls in love with the scientist.

Advanced Chemistry debuted at the Dances With Films NY Festival earlier this year. The deal was brokered by Erik Donley on behalf of Good Deed Entertainment and Glen Reynolds of Circus Road on behalf of the filmmakers.

“Advanced Chemistry is a raucous romantic comedy that asks the question, “What if?” A Midsummer Night’s Dream “Was it driven by science?” It’s a story where truth is stranger than fiction,” Jacobson said.

Moore added: “Oppenheimer’s success proved that audiences are interested in stories about scientists. And our movie is even funnier than Oppenheimer.”
