The Natalie Portman-Jude Law music drama Vox Lux is getting an Oscar push with a limited release date on December 7, according to Deadline.
The actress won an Oscar for her performance in 2011’s Black Swan, and has received three nominations.
NEON acquired the film at TIFF, where it released to critical praise, and obviously feels confident enough to afford it the same release platform as last year’s I, Tonya, which ended up securing three Oscar nominations for best actress, film editing, and best supporting actress (which Allison Janney ultimately won).
Vox Lux follows the rise of ‘Celeste’ from the ashes of a major national tragedy to pop superstardom.
