Bleecker Street, Shivhans Pictures To Co-Release ‘Love Me’ Starring Kristen Stewart And Steven Yeun In U.S.

Bleecker Street and ShivHans Pictures will co-release Love Me, a cosmic romance starring Kristen Stewart (Love Lies Bleeding) and Steven Yeun (Minari) that world premiered at Sundance at top of year, where it was awarded the Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize. Written and directed by Sam & Andy Zuchero, in their feature debut, the film is slated for a nationwide theatrical release in early 2025.

WME Independent will rep international rights to the film, beginning in Cannes this week.

Love Me sees a buoy and a satellite meet online long after humanity’s extinction. As they learn what life was like on Earth, they discover who they are and what it means to be alive and in love. Blending live-action and animation, the film is produced by ShivHans Pictures, 2AM and AgX.  Kevin Rowe, Luca Borghese, Ben Howe, Shivani Rawat and Julie Goldstein served as producers, with Daniel Bekerman, Christine D’Souza Gelb and Connor Flanagan as executive producers.

“We are excited to have Bleecker Street onboard as the newest member of our passionate Love Me team to bring the film to audiences and theaters nationwide,” said Sam and Andy Zuchero in a joint statement. “Love Me was a collaborative effort from an incredible team of artists and storytellers from Kristen, Steven, ShivHans, 2AM and AGX.”

Partnering last year to co-release Guy Nattiv’s Golda starring Helen Mirren, which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Makeup and Hairstyling, Bleecker Street and ShivHans Pictures also recently teamed up on Andrew Ahn’s reimagining of Ang Lee’s classic The Wedding Banquet, which is set to star Bowen Yang, Lily Gladstone, Kelly Marie Tran, Yuh-jung Youn and Joan Chen.
