Joss Whedon made his new movie In Your Eyes available for digital distribution
Joss Whedon is getting in all our eyes. Whedon debuted his new movie, In Your Eyes, this weekend at the Tribeca Film Festival and appeared in a video clip to say the new movie would be launched digitally as soon as his video clip ended.
In Your Eyes stars Zoe Kazan from Ruby Sparks, and Michael Stahl-David from Cloverfield. It is a supernatural love story of a sort. Zoe plays Rebecca, an East Coast doctor’s wife and Stahl-David plays an newly ex-con in in New Mexico named Dylan. The film also features Nikki Reed and Jennifer Grey.
Yesterday, Joss Whedon told the audience at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere that In Your Eyes was available directly to consumers as a $5 digital rental through Vimeo on Demand platform.
In Your Eyes was written by Whedon who produced it along with Bellwether, a microstudio that makes and distributes independent films through new media. Louis C.K. put his concert film “Live at the Beacon Theater” out by on his own like this in 2011 and he kept all the sales for himself.
Whedon is probably best known for creating the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and making The Avengers, Doll House, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Firefly, but he also created the cult musical series Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. Whedon started out as a writer on the sitcom Roseanne.
