FilmSharks Locks Deal With Federation For A French Remake Of German Comedy ‘No Hit Wonder’ — Cannes Market

EXCLUSIVE: FilmSharks has completed a deal at the Cannes Market with Federation Films for a French remake of the German comedy No Hit Wonder. 

No Hit Wonder is a Warner Bros Germany and Pantaleon title. The film debuted at this year’s Rotterdam Film Festival. The film was released in Germany last year by Warner Bros. 

The film follows a one-hit-wonder singer who hits rock bottom and, after a failed suicide attempt, wakes up in a psychiatric facility. The official synopsis reads: “His new life and agenda are filled with therapy sessions and very peculiar activities. Now he must face an uncomfortable question: who is he when his only success no longer defines him, and open up to start a wonderful healing journey. 

The film’s cast features Florian David Fitz (Jesus Loves Me), Nora Tschirner (Keinohrhasen), Udo Samel (Europa Europa), and Corinna Kirchhoff (Paradise). Florian Dietrich directed the film from a screenplay by Florian David Fitz. Producers are Dan Maag, Daniel Sonnabend, Marco Beckmann, and Alexander Dreissig.
