Sundance “Union County,” a recovery-focused drama starring Will Poulter and Noah Centineo, has been acquired by Oscilloscope Laboratories.
The film, directed by Adam Meeks, casts Poulter and Centineo as two fictional characters (brothers grappling with opioid addiction) amid the real-life participants of a court-sponsored drug rehabilitation program in rural Ohio. Meeks’ extended family lives in this part of the state, and the story developed from those close ties; his uncle introduced him to the drug court judge, who invited him to sit in on a meeting.
