AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Michael Lockshin’s Russian-language adaptation of Mikhail Bulgakov’s “The Master and Margarita” will finally have a U.S. theatrical release after overcoming legal hurdles. Luminosity Pictures is distributing the film, beginning September 18.

The long-awaited release follows "a lengthy battle," according to Variety, which suggests the film faced obstacles before securing distribution in the United States. Based on Mikhail Bulgakov’s “seminal, semi-autobiographical work,” the movie tells the story of a writer in 1930s […].

The source does not provide details about the nature of the legal battle or what specifically caused the delay, but confirms that Luminosity Pictures are rolling out the film across Stateside theaters starting September 18. The adaptation brings Bulgakov’s acclaimed novel to a wider audience after a period where its U.S. release was uncertain.
