The feature is being produced in association with Sipur Studios (Bad Boy) and Substance. Range Select and UTA are co-repping the project's distribution rights. While Grace became a bold-faced name thanks to his good-natured starring turn in now classic sitcom That '70s Show, the actor has focused on work to upend that image. This year alone he co-starred in The Waterfront, Kevin Williamson's Netflix crime drama in which he played a fun and dangerous drug supplier. He also starred as a fugitive informant trying to survive a deranged Mark Wahlberg in Lionsgate action thriller Flight Risk. Last year, he appeared in A24's well-regarded and awards-nominated psychological horror movie Heretic. Grace next appears opposite Glen Powell and Margaret Qualley in A24 thriller Huntington. He is repped by CAA, Brillstein Entertainment Partners and Hirsch Wallerstein.
