Abigail Breslin and Colman Domingo are starring in Chapter 51, a comedic thriller that has secured a major distribution deal. According to Deadline, Cineverse has acquired North American rights to the film, which marks the feature directorial debut of photographer and filmmaker Tyler Shields, who also wrote and shot it.
Shields is stepping into narrative filmmaking with this genre blend. Breslin recently appeared in Little Miss Sunshine, while Domingo starred in Michael. The pairing suggests a character-driven comedy with thriller elements—the kind of mid-budget film Cineverse typically releases through theatrical and digital platforms.
No release date has been announced.
