Sundance Parties 2017: Elle Fanning, Mark Hamill, Claire Danes Projects Set Party Plans
Little indie movies with big stars, their producers, and the brands that help them celebrate are cementing their party plans for Park City during the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.
For the third year, TheWrap’s Party Report is teaming up with the Kia Supper Suite, a touring series of cast dinner parties that has previously held events at the Tribeca, Toronto, and Sundance Film Festivals, as a branded media partner and our homebase on Main Street.
First Look at 5 Hotspots for 2017
A series of film parties is on the menu with works from names like Hannibal Buress, original Sundance “it-girl” Parker Posey, Andy Samberg, Claire Danes, “Friday Night Lights” leads Connie Britton and Kyle Chandler, and Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill.
“Kuso” comes from musician Flying Lotus, and the guests may be queasy after a screening of what Sundance calls “an outrageous fever dream” featuring a performance by Hannibal Buress.
Later in the night, there will be a cocktail reception for the John Cho, Rory Culkin and Parker Posey film about a man stuck in a midwestern town while caring for his father who is in a coma.
Fresh off of two studio movies, “Live by Night” and “20th Century Woman,” Elle Fanning stars in a triptych story about a young writer who finds success with a breakout novel, rides the wave of success, and then disappears.
TheWrap’s Party Report at Sundance is presented by the vehicles that will be shuttling filmmakers and casts to special events, the Kia Niro and Sorento Crossovers.
