Description:

More than a year and a half after his film Minamata debuted at the Berlin International Film Festival in February 2020, director Andrew Levitas is alleging MGM of 'burying' the film amid star Johnny Depp's legal turmoil.

MGM acquired the film in October 2020 through its newly-relaunched American International Pictures, initially scheduled for release in February 2021.

While a release in the U.K. and Ireland will happen on August 13, there is still no planned North American release, with the director claiming in a letter he sent to MGM and others that he was told the studio is 'burying' the film.
