‘I Don’t Know How She Does It’ Blu-ray Announced and Detailed
We don’t know either, but Sarah Jessica Parker’s latest comedy based on Allison Pearson’s critically acclaimed bestseller is still coming to Blu-ray in the new year.
In an early announcement to retailers, Starz/Anchor Bay is working on ‘I Don’t Know How She Does It‘ for Blu-ray on January 3.
From director Douglas McGrath (‘Emma,’ ‘Infamous’) and producer Donna Gigliotti (‘The Reader,’ ‘Let Me In’), Sarah Jessica Parker (‘Sex and the City’) leads a top-notch ensemble cast that includes Pierce Brosnan (‘Die Another Day’), Greg Kinnear (‘Little Miss Sunshine’), Christina Hendricks (“Mad Men”), Kelsey Grammer (“Boss”), Seth Meyers (“Saturday Night Live”), and Olivia Munn (“The Daily Show with Jon Stewart”).
NBC’s ‘Moms & the City’ call ‘I Don’t Know How She Does It’ “a hilarious comedy about having it all” and “the perfect film for a girls night out!” The New York Daily News’ Elizabeth Weitzman describes the film as having “plenty of humor and poignancy”, while SHAPE magazine’s Karen Borsari calls it “hilarious!” Finally, New York Magazine’s David Edelstein proclaims, “Sarah Jessica Parker reminds you what an all-in, high-risk comic actress she can be.”
The Blu-ray will feature 1080p video, a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack, and the only supplement will be a conversation with Allison Pearson.
Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is $39.99.

Myriad to handle foreign on Broken Lizard’s ‘Freeloaders’
Myriad Pictures has acquired rights outside North America to the Broken Lizard comedy “Freeloaders,” which has been on the shelf more than a year.
“Freeloaders” is directed by Dan Rosen and starring Jane Seymour, Dave Foley, Olivia Munn and Clifton Collins, Jr. Myriad is selling the finished film, which hasn’t been released in the U.S., at the American Film Market.
Script, written by Rosen and Dave Gibbs, follows a group of slackers living for free in a rock star’s mansion and discover their cherished lifestyle is threatened when the musician decides to sell his pad.
Project’s produced for Broken Lizard by long-time Lizard collaborator and producer Richard Perello and Julia Dray, under the five-member filmmaking comedy group’s shingle. “Freeloaders” was brought to Broken Lizard in the early stages of development.
“When we read the script for Freeloaders, we jumped at the chance to help shepherd the filmmakers through,” said Jay Chandrasekhar of Broken Lizard. “Having been to some pretty wild parties in our lives we knew this would make a very funny movie.”
Thomas Gardner, Gregory P. Cimino II and Adam Duritz (of the band Counting Crows) are also producing. Matthew Pritzker is executive producing with his production company, Turbo Streak Entertainment.
