JAKE SQUARED, With Virginia Madsen and Elias Koteas, Hits Theaters Today

Freestyle Releasing and Freestyle Digital Media (FDM) previously announced that they acquired theatrical and all DVD/VOD rights to JAKE SQUARED, the existential comedy from writer/director Howard Goldberg (director of Sundance Festival favorite EDEN). Watch the trailer below!

The film features Elias Koteas ("Chicago PD"), Jennifer Jason Leigh, Academy Award-nominee Virginia Madsen, Jane Seymour and Mike Vogel ("Under the Dome"). JAKE SQUARED was produced by Goldberg, Koteas, and David K. Wilson. Executive Producer was Oren Koules ("Saw" series and "2 1/2 Men"). The film is slated for a theatrical and VOD release today, August 15th, 2014.

Jake Klein, 50 (Koteas), sets out to make a movie. He hires an actor to play himself and throws a big party. His idea is to shoot the heck out of it and see what he gets. But, everything spins out of control as different, unexpected people show up. Old loves are there. New loves are there. His dead father, his mother when she was young, his kids, his ex-wife, even his younger selves, Jake at 40, Jake at 30 and Jake at 17, are there, too - and every one of them has tons of advice on how to fix his screwed up life. Jake's head reels as he staggers through what's either a mystical experience, a nervous breakdown... or both!

Freestyle Releasing Co-President Mark Borde brokered the deal with Howard Goldberg. "Jake Squared is a funny, star-packed indie darling," said Borde, "we are very happy to now be offering it to a wide audience."

JAKE SQUARED was recently the centerpiece film at the 2014 Downtown Film Festival of Los Angeles and won both Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress -- Feature Film awards, for Virginia Madsen and Jane Seymour, respectively.
