Network Media Group Inc. (TSXV: NTE.V) (OTC: NETWF) and Network Entertainment Inc. («Network» or «the Company») in partnership with ABC News Studios and NEON, announced today that BRATS, a new feature-length documentary from director Andrew McCarthy, will be showcased Friday, June 7, at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival and will premiere Thursday, June 13, on Hulu in the U.S. and later this summer on Disney+ in select territories.
Announced earlier this year, BRATS looks at the iconic films of the 1980s that shaped a generation and the narrative that took hold when their young stars were branded the «Brat Pack.» McCarthy reunites with his fellow Brat Packers — friends, colleagues, and former foes, including Rob Lowe, Demi Moore, Ally Sheedy, Emilio Estevez, Jon Cryer, Lea Thompson, and Timothy Hutton, many of whom he had not seen for over 30 years — to answer the question: What did it mean to be part of the Brat Pack? McCarthy also sits down for a first-time conversation with writer David Blum, who fatefully coined the term Brat Pack in a 1985 New York Magazine cover story.
«We are truly honored to embark on this journey with esteemed partners ABC News Studios and NEON to bring BRATS to life,» said Network producer Derik Murray. «It’s a privilege to be collaborating with Andrew McCarthy, whose deep personal connection to the Brat Pack brings an unparalleled authenticity to the project. His unique journey from actor to director to bestselling author adds a layer of complexity and intelligence to the film, offering audiences a compelling and highly entertaining glimpse into this iconic period and the films that defined it.»
«The Brat Pack captivated a generation and defined cool for so many,» said Mike Kelley, who heads ABC News Studios. «Andrew, as a seminal member, brings unbelievable access and perspective to the phenomenon as director of this film. It’s a deeply personal, surprising, and entertaining journey and a film we are so proud of at ABC News Studios.»
«Making BRATS was that rare opportunity to dive back into the frozen past and bring it up into the living present,» said McCarthy.
