Anton Corbijn's A Most Wanted Man is among a particularly strong group of narrative and documentary features premiering at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival, The Hollywood Reporter said.
Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the festival unveiled this year's lineup of premieres, which also will include the Michael Fassbender starrer Frank, Lynn Shelton's coming-of-age comedy Laggies featuring Keira Knightley in the role that Anne Hathaway famously abandoned and David Wain's send-up of the romantic comedy genre They Came Together, starring Amy Poehler and Paul Rudd.
A Most Wanted Man has been generating heat thanks to the source material (John le Carre's best-selling thriller) and a cast that includes Philip Seymour Hoffman, Rachel McAdams, Robin Wright and Willem Dafoe.
Documentaries include Alex Gibney's Finding Fela, about the late Afrobeat pioneer and human rights activist Fela Anikulapo Kuti, and a look at the Penn State college football program's pedophilia scandal, Happy Valley, as well as films about Mitt Romney and James "Whitey" Bulger.
