BEHIND EVERY CODE IS AN ENIGMA
The Imitation Game will be distributed by The Weinstein Company in the United States and Studio Canal in the United Kingdom. FilmNation represents the rights to international territories.
The film is set for release in the UK on 14 November 2014 and 21 November 2014 in the US.
The film's screenplay topped the annual Black List for best unproduced Hollywood scripts of 2011. After a bidding process against five other studios, The Weinstein Company acquired the film for a record $7 million in February 2014, the highest ever amount paid for US distribution rights at the European Film Market.
In an interview with USA Today, Cumberbatch said of Turing's Royal Pardon, "The only person who should be pardoning anybody is him (Turing). Hopefully, the film will bring to the fore what an extraordinary human being he was and how appalling (his treatment by the government was). It's a really shameful, disgraceful part of our history."
