Kindred Media Group Acquires `Game 6` Rights

In a very recent acquisition, Kindred Media Group acquired North American distribution rights to Michael Hoffman`s new movie, `Game 6`. The film stars Michael Keaton and Robert Downey Jr. The film, based on Don DeLillo`s original screenplay, is directed by Michael Hoffman. `Game 6` will premiere in cities including Boston, New York and Los Angeles on Friday, March 3rd, 2006.

`We are extremely excited about releasing the screenwriting debut of acclaimed novelist Don DeLillo,` said Jeffrey D. Erb, President of Kindred Media Group. `With such incredible performances by such terrific actors and director, this film explores a moment in history by making it a metaphor for people`s lives. We can`t wait to bring it to audiences across the country.`

On the eve of the opening of his newest play playwright Nicky Rogan (Michael Keaton) is fixated on failure. But not without reason. As Rogan`s day begins, his marriage is in shambles, his lead actor has a parasite in his brain causing him to forget his lines, there is asbestos in the air, and he is terrified of the feared critic Steven Schwimmer (Robert Downey Jr.) who is so hated that he`s taken to carrying a gun to the theatre.
All of this and it just so happens to be October 25th, 1986. A day that every Red Sox fan will never forget. And Nicky Rogan has been a die hard Red Sox fan forever. Director Michael Hoffman describes the movie as `poised between realism and paranoid fantasy.`

`We are thrilled with the support that Kindred Media Group has pledged to `Game 6`, said Leslie Urdang of Serenade Films. `Don Delillo is one of our country`s most respected writers and Michael Hoffman and Michael Keaton bring this deeply original story to the screen with precision, surprise, and humor.`
