Angel Studios has set a February 6 wide theatrical release for Solo Mio directed by Chuck Kinnane and Dan Kinnane (Home Team) and produced by Mark Fasano and Jeffrey Greenstein. It’s the first romantic comedy for faith-based Angel (The King Of Kings, The Sound Of Freedom).
Kevin James stars as Matt, a man whose dreams of a picturesque Italian wedding are shattered when his fiancée leaves him at the altar. Matt embarks on his planned honeymoon across Italy alone, immersing himself in the country’s vibrant culture, food, and beauty, meeting Gia (Nicole Grimaudo) along the way.
With Alyson Hannigan, Kim Coates, Jonathan Roumie, Julee Cerda and Julie Ann Emery. Written by James and Patrick and John Kinnane.
Hannigan — whose previous credits include Universal’s American Pie film franchise and hit series How I Met Your Mother and Buffy the Vampire Slayer – plays a twice-divorced woman who is on her third honeymoon with the same man.
Roumie is known for Sons of Anarchy and playing Jesus in The Chosen.
The project marks the second collaboration between James, Fasano’s Nickel City Pictures, and Greenstein’s A Higher Standard, after action film Playdate.
“We saw Solo Mio, and the feeling was incredible. We knew it was a perfect fit for Angel to release to a broad audience,” said Angel President Jordan Harmon. “Kevin James and Jonathan Roumie bring heart, humor, and originality to this uplifting tale of rediscovery, and we can’t wait for audiences to experience it in theaters.”
“We couldn’t be more excited to be partnered with Angel on Solo Mio,” said Jeffrey Greenstein. “This is a film that people need to see in theaters. The world just needs fun, heartfelt content with a strong message, and we’re excited to get them back into the theaters to see this one,”
